Review signing documents after a Drive share

Catch access changes that may affect who should see or sign a document.

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 Documents

Tool to list documents in the Docnify account.

Why this helps

A newly shared source file can change the people involved without a matching signing review.

  • Adds a review point after access changes
  • Helps catch unexpected participants
  • Creates a clear report for follow-up
