Paulos 30 was hegoumenos of the monastery of Bistilos; in 787 he attended the Second Council of Nikaia (the Seventh Ecumenical Council) and is attested at the fourth session, on 1 October 787, when he subscribed the statements read out from the Fathers in support of the veneration of icons: Mansi XIII 152 (Παῦλος ἡγούμενος τοῦ Βιστίλου; in the Latin version, at XIII 151, he is called "hegumenus Baulei" (sic)). He probably attended other sessions of the Council also; see Gregorios 45.
