Keep changed Drive datasets moving to Dromo
When a dataset changes, have Notis attempt the Dromo upload and report what happened.
Trigger
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Action
Upload File To Headless Import
Tool to upload a file to a headless import. use after obtaining a signed upload url from dromo. performs an http put of raw bytes to the provided signed url.
Why this helps
A changed source file can leave the version used for an import unclear.
- Reduce the chance that an updated source file is overlooked.
- Receive a run report for each upload attempt.
- Keep the upload instruction focused on the file that changed.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Dromo once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to upload the changed file bytes to the intended Dromo headless import using a valid signed upload URL available to the run.
- 4Pick the File Updated trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real updated dataset and a valid signed upload URL.
Questions about this workflow
Will this create a new Dromo import configuration?
No. It uses the Dromo headless upload action and needs the intended import's valid signed URL.
Does the trigger detect file content changes?
The listed File Updated event triggers when Drive file metadata or content changes.
Can Notis tell me whether this data differs from the previous upload?
Only if the prior data or a comparison baseline is available to the run. The upload action itself does not provide that comparison.

Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
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.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
