Start a Drive workspace for each new Zendesk user
Have Notis create a Drive folder for a new Zendesk user, so customer-specific working materials can have a clear home from the start.
Trigger
New User Created
Triggered when a new user is created in Zendesk.
Action
Create a folder
Creates a new folder in google drive, optionally within a parent folder specified by its id or name; if a parent name is provided but not found, the action will fail.
Why this helps
Customer documents become harder to retrieve when every person creates folders with a different name or location.
- Create a consistent home for future customer materials
- Make customer files easier to locate by name
- Avoid stopping to make a folder manually
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Zendesk and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis where to create the folder and how to name it using details available from the new user event.
- 4Choose the New User Created trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real user creation and confirm the name and parent location.
Questions about this workflow
Will it create a folder for an organization or company?
Only if the relevant organization details are available from the event or provided in your instruction.
Will this move existing files into the folder?
No. It creates a folder; moving files would require a separate workflow and a way to identify the files.
Can the folder be created inside a parent folder?
The action supports an optional parent folder specified by id or name. Make the intended parent clear in your instruction.
