Why this helps
Small source copy changes create translation drift and manual follow-up.

- Speeds source corrections
- Keeps translators working from current text
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect OneDrive and Crowdin in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Refresh changed localization string.
- 3Tell Notis to update the corresponding Crowdin string when the changed OneDrive item contains the revised source text and a string reference.
- 4Pick the OneDrive Item Updated trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one known string update.
Questions about this workflow
What if no string reference exists?
Notis can report that the item needs a string reference before editing.
Does this update every string in a file?
No. The instruction should identify the specific corresponding string or a clearly bounded set.
