Auto-archive Hubspot contacts when Drive prospect status changes

Your team marks prospects as archived in a Drive sheet. Notis automatically archives the matching contacts in Hubspot to keep your contact list clean.

Trigger

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.

Action

Archive contact by id

Archives a contact in hubspot crm by its id, moving it to the recycling bin; this is generally irreversible via api and removes the contact from active use.

Why this helps

Your team qualifies or disqualifies prospects in Drive, but Hubspot contacts stay active and clutter pipeline views.

  • Keep Hubspot contact view focused on active prospects only
  • Reduce manual contact housekeeping
  • Let your team work in Drive while Hubspot stays organized

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Hubspot to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When a prospect is marked as archived in my Drive tracking sheet, archive the matching contact in Hubspot.'
  • 3Select the trigger: 'File Updated' for your prospect sheet.
  • 4Set your notification channel.
  • 5Test by marking a prospect as archived in Drive and verifying the contact is archived in Hubspot.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis identify which row changed status?

Notis compares the current sheet to the previous version and detects status changes automatically.

Can this work for other statuses like 'disqualified' or 'do not contact'?

Yes. Set up separate automations for each status or tell Notis to take different actions based on the status value.

What if the contact name in Drive doesn't exactly match Hubspot?

Include a unique ID (prospect ID, email) in your Drive sheet so Notis matches precisely.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Hubspot. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Google Drive triggers

Hubspot actions

Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)

Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.

TriggerPolling

Add asset association

Associates an existing asset ('form', 'object list', or 'external web url') with a specified hubspot marketing campaign.

ActionInstant

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

Add token to event template

Adds a new custom data token to an existing event template for a specified hubspot application, optionally populating a crm object property if objectpropertyname is provided.

ActionInstant

File Deleted or Trashed

Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.

TriggerPolling

Archive email

Archives the hubspot email specified by `emailid` by moving it to the recycling bin, making it inaccessible unless restored.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Archive a batch of emails by ID

Archives multiple hubspot crm emails by id; ids must exist as archiving is irreversible.

ActionInstant

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

Archive a batch of quotes by id

Archives a batch of existing, non-archived quotes by their ids; this action is irreversible and useful for managing outdated or irrelevant quotes.

ActionInstant

Google Drive Changes

Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

Archive batch of companies by id

Archives a batch of companies by their unique ids; targeted companies must exist, not be previously archived, and this api operation is irreversible.

ActionInstant

New File Matching Query

Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.

TriggerPolling

Archive batch of contacts by id

Archives a batch of existing contacts by their hubspot crm ids, rendering them inactive; this action is irreversible via the api and requires manual restoration or a separate unarchive endpoint.

ActionInstant

Archive batch of deals by id

Archives a batch of existing deals by their unique hubspot ids, removing them from active views and reports (soft delete); archived deals may be restorable.

ActionInstant

Not just Google Drive and Hubspot. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
