Create a DeployHQ server group from a shared Drive file

Use a deliberate file share as the handoff that starts environment setup.

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

Create Server Group

Tool to create a new server group for automated deployments in a DeployHQ project. Use when you need to set up a group of servers for deploying from a specific branch with auto-deploy and notification settings.

Why this helps

Environment requests rely on informal handoffs and server grouping gets delayed.

  • Makes environment handoffs explicit
  • Starts server grouping at the right moment
  • Creates a clear activity trail

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Super and DeployHQ in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for environment handoffs.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a server group when the specified Drive file is shared and include the approved environment details.
  • 4Pick File Shared (Permissions Added) as the trigger.
  • 5Choose where reports go and test with one controlled share.

Questions about this workflow

Can this be limited to one folder or file?

Yes. Name the file or folder in the automation instruction.

What if the share lacks environment details?

Ask Notis to report the missing information and skip creation.
