Create a Doppler list when Drive finds new research
A new research segment should have a clear home. When Drive finds a matching file, ask Notis to create a Doppler list only when the file describes a distinct audience and the instruction provides a useful name and purpose.
Trigger
New File Matching Query
Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.
Action
Create List
Tool to create a new subscriber list for a specified account. use when you need to segment contacts into a new list.
Why this helps
Research files and planned audiences can become disconnected, leaving founders to remember which segments need a mailing list and what each list is for.
- Turn a qualifying research artifact into a ready audience container.
- Keep list names and purposes tied to the source material.
- Avoid creating lists for files with unclear or duplicate audience intent.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Doppler in the Notis portal once.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to review each matching file for a distinct audience, derive a concise list name and purpose from its contents, and create the Doppler list only when the audience is clear.
- 4Pick the Google Drive New File Matching Query trigger and provide the intended Drive query when setting up the trigger.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real matching research file.
Questions about this workflow
Does this add subscribers to the new list?
No. This workflow uses Doppler Create List to create the list and report its details. Adding subscribers requires a separate workflow using an import or add subscriber action.
What if the research file does not describe a clear audience?
The instruction should tell Notis to report the ambiguity and skip list creation until you provide a purpose and name.
Can the trigger watch only relevant Drive files?
The New File Matching Query trigger supports a provided Drive query. Choose a query that fits your files and available Drive setup.

Get List
Tool to retrieve details of a specific subscriber list by its id. use when you need to fetch metadata of an existing list.
File Shared (Permissions Added)
Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.
Get Lists
Tool to retrieve all lists associated with a specified doppler account. use when you need an overview of all mailing lists. example: "retrieve lists for account partnerships@composio.dev"
