Create a Box link after invoice processing

Make a processed invoice easier to reach with a Box shared link, all from one request to Notis.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add shared link to file

Adds a shared link to a file.

Why this helps

After processing a document, people still have to locate it in Box and create a share link manually.

  • Create a share link as part of invoice processing.
  • Reduce manual searching in Box.
  • Make the processed invoice easier to access.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Box once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what to do from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to process the invoice and create a shared link for the corresponding Box file.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real invoice and verify the returned link and its access settings.

Questions about this workflow

Does creating a shared link make the file public?

Link access depends on the shared link settings supported by Box. Specify the intended access in your instruction and verify the setting during the test.

What if the Box file is not available yet?

The workflow needs to identify the corresponding file in Box. Include how Notis should find it in the instruction, and test that identification with a real example.
