Check Cloudlayer Assets after a File Is Shared

Keep shared source files connected to the deliverables people may receive.

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

Get Asset

Tool to retrieve a specific asset by its id. use when you need to fetch metadata or download url of an existing asset after its generation.

Why this helps

Sharing a source file without checking its generated deliverable can create avoidable confusion.

  • Adds a delivery checkpoint
  • Improves sharing visibility
  • Reduces asset mismatch risk
