Keep track when OneDrive items move or change names
Notis can capture both the old and new path or name in a Google Sheets log when a OneDrive item moves or is renamed.
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
Batch update spreadsheet
Updates a specified range in a google sheet with given values, or appends them as new rows if `first cell location` is omitted; ensure the target sheet exists and the spreadsheet contains at least one worksheet.
Why this helps
A moved or renamed item can break familiar links and leave collaborators searching for it.
- Preserve old and new location details.
- Make renamed items easier to trace.
- Help collaborators follow changes without repeated searches.
Setup

- 1Connect OneDrive and Google Sheets once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to log each item's old and new path or name in your change log.
- 4Pick the Item Moved or Renamed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real move or rename and review the recorded details.
