List groups after Drive sharing changes

When collaborators gain access to a program file, surface the Certifier groups they may need.

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

List Groups

Tool to list all groups. use when you need to retrieve groups with pagination (limit and cursor).

Why this helps

New collaborators receive file access but lack the group context needed to handle credentials.

  • Support faster collaborator onboarding
  • Make group context discoverable
  • Reduce handoff messages

  • 2Create an automation describing the sharing change and group information needed.
  • 3Pick File Shared (Permissions Added) as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where reports go and test with one real permission change.
