Review Elasticsearch indices when Drive access changes
When a file is shared, see which Elasticsearch indices are available for any related investigation.
Trigger
File Shared (Permissions Added)
Triggers when new sharing access is granted to a file or folder.
Action
List Indices
Lists available Elasticsearch indices.
Why this helps
A permissions change can prompt a review, but discovering the relevant data collections adds extra navigation.
- Get a current index inventory when sharing permissions change.
- Reduce app switching during follow-up review.
- Use filters in the instruction to keep the list focused.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a new automation in Automations, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list Elasticsearch indices after new Drive sharing permissions are granted and summarize relevant results.
- 4Choose the Google Drive File Shared trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real permission event and review the inventory.
Questions about this workflow
Does the inventory show who was granted access?
No. The selected action lists Elasticsearch indices. Any details about the permission event depend on the trigger data.
Can the list be limited to a pattern?
Yes. The action supports optional filtering by pattern, health status, or other criteria; describe the filter in your instruction.
