Notice when a document template is filled
A finished template can trigger a simple next-step cue instead of waiting to be discovered.
Trigger
Document Placeholder Filled
Triggers when a Google Doc's plain text changes such that a configured placeholder token/pattern is no longer present (i.e., the document has been filled in). This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when a placeholder pattern that was previously present is no longer found in the document's plain text.
Action
Send Message
Send a text message to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
Completing a document is easy to forget to hand off when the filling work happens between other tasks.
- Notice when configured placeholder content is no longer present.
- Use completion as a cue to review or hand off the document.
- Reduce the chance that finished paperwork sits unnoticed.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Super and Telegram to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation and tell Notis in plain language what completion note or handoff cue to send in Telegram.
- 3Select Document Placeholder Filled for the document and choose a run-report channel.
- 4Test by filling the configured placeholder in one suitable real document.
