Review DPD notification authenticity alongside sharing changes

When a Drive file is shared, Notis can run a DPD notification verification if the original notification signature and payload are available in the automation context.

Trigger

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.

Action

Verify DPD Notification

Tool to verify a webhook notification's authenticity by posting back the original signature and payload. use after receiving a notification to confirm it originates from dpd.

Why this helps

A permissions change can trigger review work, while notification authenticity checks require locating the right verification step and original payload.

  • Use a concrete Drive sharing event to start a review run.
  • Invoke DPD's notification verification action when its required inputs are available.
  • Keep verification runs visible through Notis reporting.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and DPD once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe in one instruction when to verify a DPD notification and ensure its original signature and payload are available to the run.
  • 4Choose the File Shared trigger and select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with a real sharing event and a real DPD notification payload.

Questions about this workflow

Does sharing a Drive file provide the DPD signature and payload?

No. The Drive sharing event describes a permission change. DPD verification requires the original notification signature and payload, which must be available separately in the run context.

Will the workflow approve a notification if verification fails?

The listed action verifies authenticity. The available action description does not specify additional response or approval behavior.
