Clean up related generated audio after a source is removed
When a source file is trashed, remove the related ElevenLabs history item if you have identified its ID.
Trigger
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted.
Action
Delete history item
Permanently deletes a history item and its audio; this cannot be undone.
Why this helps
Generated audio can remain in history after its source document is intentionally removed.
- Keep generated audio aligned with source cleanup decisions.
- Reduce leftover items from removed material.
- Automate a specific cleanup action when IDs are available.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and ElevenLabs once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the exact cleanup rule, including how the related history item ID is supplied.
- 3Pick the Google Drive File Deleted or Trashed trigger.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one known source and a designated history item.
Questions about this workflow
Can Drive identify the ElevenLabs history item automatically?
Not from the trigger description alone. The related history item ID must be available or supplied for the delete action.
Can this action be undone?
No. Deleting a history item is permanent, so use a precise rule and verify the target ID.
