Discover Elasticsearch indices when a Drive file matches

When a file meets your existing Drive query, get an inventory of Elasticsearch indices for your next step.

Trigger

New File Matching Query

Triggers when a new file matching a search is created.

Action

List Indices

Lists available Elasticsearch indices.

Why this helps

A matching file may prompt a search, but finding available Elasticsearch collections adds a separate setup task.

  • See available Elasticsearch indices when a relevant file appears.
  • Use optional index filters to narrow the inventory.
  • Keep index discovery results with the matching file run.

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 when a Drive file matches the configured query and summarize the result.
  • 4Choose the New File Matching Query trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a real matching file and confirm the index inventory.

Questions about this workflow

Does this query index documents?

No. List Indices returns available indices, optionally filtered by pattern, health status, or other criteria.

Does this configure the matching query?

No. The trigger is query-centric and uses the selected trigger's query configuration. This automation does not create or edit it.
