Triggers when a new channel is subscribed.

Action

Why this helps

A new subscription can be easy to forget when you are researching channels across separate sessions.

  • Keep subscription changes searchable
  • Review channel discoveries later
  • Add an optional reason in your instruction for useful context

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect YouTube and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a dated Drive note for each new subscription with the channel details available in the event.
  • 4Choose New YouTube Channel Subscription as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real subscription and review the note.

Questions about this workflow

Can the note include why I subscribed?

The event may not include your reason. You can supply a standard note in the instruction, but a personal reason must be provided by you.

Does this add a subscription in YouTube?

No. The subscription event starts the workflow, and the action creates a record in Google Drive.
