Keep tracked OneDrive file details current
A document changes, but its tracking record can stay stale. Let Notis update the Airtable entry when OneDrive reports an edit.
Trigger
File Updated
Trigger that fires when a OneDrive file's content or metadata changes. Returns file ID, last modified time, and modifier info.
Action
Update record
Modifies specified fields of an existing record in an airtable base and table; the base, table, and record must exist.
Why this helps
People make decisions from outdated document details because the tracking record was never refreshed.
- Reduce stale document records.
- See when OneDrive last reported a file change.
- Spend less time checking records manually.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect OneDrive and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and name it for the update it handles.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to find and update the Airtable record for the changed file using available file details.
- 4Pick the File Updated trigger and select a report channel.
- 5Test with one real file update and review the resulting record.
