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

Create PDF Asynchronously

Why this helps

After editing a source document, it is easy to leave the downstream PDF outdated or forget the next document step.

  • React to changes in existing OneDrive files
  • Queue PDF generation as a background task
  • Reduce manual follow-up after document edits

  • 1Connect OneDrive and CraftMyPDF once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe how an updated file should be handled.
  • 3Pick the File Updated trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one real updated file.

Questions about this workflow

What change activates the workflow?

The File Updated event fires when a OneDrive file's content or metadata changes and includes file ID, last modified time, and modifier information.

Does this event provide the file contents?

The event description guarantees metadata, not the full file contents. Supply any content or template requirements in your prompt or connected workflow context.

Is the PDF created immediately?

CraftMyPDF queues asynchronous generation, so the result is produced in the background.
