Make Box review files easy to share

Move work into review and have the relevant Box document ready to share.

Trigger

Task Moved to Section

Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.

Action

Add shared link to file

Adds a shared link to a file.

Why this helps

Review handoffs stall when someone has to find the right file and create a share link manually.

  • Reduce manual steps during review handoffs.
  • Make the relevant Box file easier to access.
  • Keep review moving with fewer context switches.

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 to find the relevant Box file for the task and create a shared link when the task enters review.
  • 4Pick the Asana Task Moved to Section trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real task and verify the link and access settings.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know which Box file to share?

Describe how to identify the relevant file in your instruction, such as a file link or name included with the task. If that information is unavailable, Notis cannot reliably select the right file.

Who can open the shared link?

Specify the access level you want in your instruction. Box permissions and enterprise policies determine which link options are available.
