Audit New Drive Sharing in Appdrag

Make every new file share visible to the backend process that reviews access.

Trigger

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.

Action

Execute Cloud Backend function via POST

Tool to execute a Cloud Backend API function via POST on the default environment. Use when you need to call a function with POST parameters and optional APIKey.

Why this helps

Access changes can go unreviewed when sharing activity is scattered across Drive.

  • Surface new access changes
  • Create consistent audit records
  • Reduce permission blind spots

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Super and Appdrag in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation describing how new sharing permissions should be audited.
  • 3Pick File Shared (Permissions Added) as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one real permission change.
