Extend Your Stack: Webhook-Triggered Folder Creation

Issues come from multiple tools, but only Jira auto-creates Drive folders. Notis accepts webhooks so any tool can trigger the same automation.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create a folder

Creates a new folder in google drive, optionally within a parent folder specified by its id or name; if a parent name is provided but not found, the action will fail.

Why this helps

You use Jira for some work and another tool for the rest. Only Jira automates folder creation. The other tool's issues stay scattered in Drive.

  • Use Notis automations for tools without built-in Notis integration
  • Centralize folder creation across your entire stack
  • Build custom trigger workflows tailored to your needs
  • Reduce manual organization across multiple tools

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and choose 'Webhook' as the trigger.
  • 3Notis generates a unique webhook URL. Copy it.
  • 4In your external tool, configure a webhook to send issue data to that URL when an issue is created (e.g., POST issue title, description, ID).
  • 5Test by creating an issue in the external tool and confirming a Google Drive folder appears with the issue details.

Questions about this workflow

What format should the webhook send?

Ask Notis in your prompt: 'Expect a JSON payload with fields: title, description, assigned_to.' Notis adapts to your tool's format.

Can I use the same webhook for multiple issue types?

Yes. Notis can distinguish based on a field in the payload, e.g., 'If type=bug, create in Bugs folder; if type=feature, create in Features folder.'

How do I test the webhook?

Use a tool like Postman or curl to send a test payload to the webhook URL. Notis will process it and create the folder.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Jira to Google Drive. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
