Copy a Box file into a handoff folder

Use a clear handoff request to place a copy of the right file where the next person expects it.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Copy file

Creates a copy of a file.

Why this helps

Preparing a handoff often means searching for the right file and making another copy by hand.

  • Reduce file handling during handoffs
  • Keep the original unchanged
  • Place the copy in the destination you specify

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ai ml api and Box once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to verify the supplied handoff request and copy the specified Box file to the supplied destination folder.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real file and destination folder.
