Keep shared links and expectations in sync

When a shared OneDrive file moves or gets a new name, a Slack message can explain where collaborators should look next.

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

Post message to channel

Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.

Why this helps

A renamed or relocated file can make familiar links and directions confusing, especially for teammates returning to old work.

  • Make a file's new name or location visible to collaborators.
  • Reduce time spent searching for a moved document.
  • Lower the chance of teammates using outdated directions.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect OneDrive and Slack to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation or tell Notis to announce when important OneDrive files move or are renamed.
  • 3Select Item Moved or Renamed and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test by moving or renaming one real file and check that the message explains the change.
