Classify the Box folder when task files arrive

Make the right classification part of the file intake routine.

Trigger

Attachment Added to Task

Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.

Action

Add classification to folder

Adds a classification to a folder by specifying the label of the classification to add. this api can also be called by including the enterprise id in the url explicitly, for example `/folders/:id/enterprise 12345/securityclassification-6vmvochwuwo`.

Why this helps

Important document handling details can be missed when attachments arrive during a busy day.

  • Apply a consistent classification as task files arrive.
  • Reduce reliance on memory for routine file handling.
  • Keep related Box folders labeled for easier review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Box once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or from any channel.
  • 3Tell Notis which Box folder to classify when an attachment is added and name the classification label.
  • 4Pick the Asana Attachment Added to Task trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real attachment and confirm the correct folder classification.

Questions about this workflow

Does this classify the attachment itself?

This workflow uses Box's folder classification action. If you need a file classified, use a file classification action in a separate workflow.

What classification will be applied?

Name the label in your instruction. The classification must already be available in the Box enterprise.
