Create a Brex budget from a new planning folder

Create a planning folder, add the brief, and let Notis set up the Brex budget.

Trigger

OneDrive Folder Created Trigger

Triggers when a new folder is created in OneDrive. Uses Gmail-style state management for reliable duplicate prevention.

Action

Create Budget

Create a new budget for departments or projects.

Why this helps

Budget setup gets postponed while finance details remain scattered across planning documents.

  • Start project budgets faster
  • Use the planning brief as the source of truth
  • Reduce setup handoffs

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect OneDrive and Brex once.
  • 2Create an automation for new budget planning folders.
  • 3Tell Notis to read the folder brief and create the Brex budget using the stated department, project, amount, and period, asking when details are absent.
  • 4Pick the OneDrive Folder Created trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Test with one planning folder containing a sample brief.

Questions about this workflow

What if the folder has no budget brief yet?

Notis can report that the folder is waiting for required budget details.
