Why this helps
Owners may not know which contact materials are already available without opening and checking a folder themselves.
- Show available materials as a contact enters the workflow.
- Reduce manual folder checks.
- Help owners spot missing expected items when given a checklist.

- 1Connect HubSpot and Dropbox once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, specify the Dropbox path to inspect for a new contact and the contents to report.
- 4Pick the HubSpot Contact Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real contact and review the listed contents.
Questions about this workflow
Can it identify which items are missing?
Provide an expected item checklist if you want Notis to compare the folder contents against a baseline.
How does it know the folder path for each contact?
State the folder naming convention in your instruction and ensure it can be derived from details available for the contact.
