Update a Beaconstac place when a OneDrive location folder moves

Keep your physical location records coherent as operations reorganize folders.

Trigger

Item Moved or Renamed

Triggers when a file or folder is moved to a different path or renamed in OneDrive. Includes both old and new path/name data in the payload.

Action

Update Place

Tool to update the specified place by id. use after retrieving the place to modify its details, such as name, address, or coordinates.

Why this helps

Folder reorganizations can hide a location change from the team managing Beaconstac.

  • Surface location changes quickly
  • Reduce stale place names
  • Support cleaner operations

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect OneDrive and Beaconstac in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Moved location folder to place update.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the matching Beaconstac place from the old and new folder details and apply only confirmed place changes.
  • 4Pick the OneDrive Item Moved or Renamed trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one moved location folder.

Questions about this workflow

Does a folder move always mean the place changed?

No. Instruct Notis to update only when the new information indicates a real place change.

Can it update coordinates?

Only when clear coordinate data is present and the action supports it.
