Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Copy folder
Copies a folder into a destination folder.
Why this helps
Folder handoffs create busywork when someone has to reproduce the same content structure manually.
- Create a separate folder copy for the handoff
- Keep the original folder unchanged
- Reduce manual handoff setup
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 folder to the supplied destination folder.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real folder and destination.
Questions about this workflow
Does the copy replace the original?
