Never Miss a Stalled Issue: Auto-Check Daily Progress
Issues go quiet for a week before you realize they're stalled. Notis searches your Drive every morning and flags untouched issues so you can unblock them fast.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Find file
Tool to list or search for files and folders in google drive. use when you need to find specific files based on query criteria or list contents of a drive/folder.
Why this helps
Issues sit idle for days. You don't realize they're stalled until sprint review. By then, it's too late. No one remembered to mention it in standup.
- Catch stalled work within 48 hours, not after a week
- Reduce surprises in status meetings
- Build a daily habit of checking in on active work
- Unblock issues before they become crisis
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Google Drive to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with 'Recurring Schedule' as the trigger.
- 3Tell Notis: 'Every weekday at 9 AM, search Google Drive for all files containing a Jira issue key and report back which ones have not been modified in the last 48 hours. Include the file name and last modified date.'
- 4Choose a notification channel where you'll see the daily alert (Slack, email, etc.).
- 5Verify the first daily report surfaces stalled files accurately.
Questions about this workflow
What counts as a modification?
Any change to the file: edits, comments, shares, metadata updates. Notis checks the 'last modified' timestamp.
Can I customize the 48-hour threshold?
Yes. Ask Notis to check for files unchanged in 72 hours, or a week, or any duration you prefer.
Can I exclude certain folders from the search?
Absolutely. Specify which folders to search: 'in the Active Issues folder only' or 'everywhere except the Archive folder.'

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Jira to Google Drive. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Jira triggers
Google Drive actions
New Issue
Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.
Add file sharing preference
Modifies sharing permissions for an existing google drive file, granting a specified role to a user, group, domain, or 'anyone'.
New Project
Triggered when a new project is added in Jira
Copy file
Duplicates an existing file in google drive, identified by its `file id`.
Updated Issue
Fires when an existing issue is changed in the Jira project you configure — for example its status, assignee, or any other field on the issue is updated. Only issues in that project produce an event. It does not fire on comment activity: adding, editing, or deleting a comment on an issue will not produce an event from this trigger.
Create Comment
Tool to create a comment on a file. use when you need to add a new comment to a specific file in google drive.
Create Shared Drive
Tool to create a new shared drive. use when you need to programmatically create a new shared drive for collaboration or storage.

Create a File from Text
Creates a new file in google drive from provided text content (up to 10mb), supporting various formats including automatic conversion to google workspace types.
Create a folder
