Update a Convolo backstory when a keyword appears
Use one explicit keyword as the handoff from research to character context.
Trigger
Keyword Detected in Document
Triggers when a specific keyword or phrase first appears in a Google Doc. This trigger monitors a Google Doc and fires once when the specified keyword is detected. After the keyword is found, the trigger will not fire again until reset.
Action
Update Character Backstory
Tool to update a character's backstory. Use when you need to modify the backstory of an existing character after confirming its ID. Only the provided fields will be updated.
Why this helps
A decision can be buried in a document even after it becomes important to the live character.
- Create a clear handoff signal
- Apply targeted context changes
- Avoid repeated document checking
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Super and Convolo ai once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation that updates the matching character backstory when the keyword appears, using the surrounding document context.
- 3Pick Keyword Detected in Document as the trigger.
- 4Choose a report channel and test with one document containing the keyword.
Questions about this workflow
Does it run repeatedly for the same keyword?
The trigger fires once until it is reset, so use a new document or reset process for another cycle.
Can the update include surrounding text?
Yes. Ask Notis to use the relevant surrounding context as the backstory update.
