Notis

Give every document review a clear next owner

When a webhook says a document needs review, ask Notis to assign a Box task to the reviewer identified in the request.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Assign task

Assigns a task to a user.

Why this helps

Review work can stall when a completed document has no explicit owner or visible follow-up task.

  • Make the review handoff visible in Box.
  • Reduce follow-up messages asking who owns the review.
  • Use the incoming request to carry the review context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect the webhook sender and Box to Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for document review handoffs.
  • 3Tell Notis to assign a Box task to the named reviewer for the identified document.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and a report destination.
  • 5Test with one real review request and confirm the assignment in Box.

Questions about this workflow

Can the task go to multiple reviewers?

Box supports assigning a task to more than one user by creating multiple assignments. Specify the intended reviewers in the instruction and request.

What starts the task?
