Questions about this workflow
Can it record the reason an event changed?
Only if the reason is included in the event data or otherwise provided. The workflow can record available details, but it cannot infer a missing reason.
Will it update one running log?
This action creates a Drive file from text. Specify the note format you want and review a test; updating a single existing log may require a different workflow design.
