Tag a DigitalOcean resource when a project file is shared

Keep cloud ownership visible when project access expands.

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

Tag Resource

Tool to tag resources by name. use when you need to assign an existing tag to one or more resources. returns 204 no content on success.

Why this helps

New collaborators often gain document access without the related cloud resource receiving a clear project tag.

  • Creates a consistent access follow-up
  • Links shared project context to cloud organization
  • Highlights ambiguous ownership before tagging

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Super and Digital ocean in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for project file sharing changes.
  • 3Describe how to identify the related project and approved resource tag.
  • 4Pick File Shared (Permissions Added) and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one controlled permission change.

Questions about this workflow

Does sharing a file prove resource ownership?

No. Instruct Notis to require a clear project or resource match before tagging.

Can it tag multiple resources?

Yes, when the project context explicitly identifies them.
