Drop a contact list into Box and get a quick read on which email addresses appear deliverable before outreach.
Trigger

Action
Email Validation
Tool to validate whether an email address is real and deliverable. use after collecting an email address to confirm deliverability.
Why this helps
Manually checking addresses one by one slows outreach and leaves avoidable bounces for later.
- Review deliverability risks before a campaign starts.
- Reduce manual address checking.
- Keep validation results tied to the Box file that triggered the run.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and Abstract once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis: validate email addresses found in the new Box item with Abstract, then summarize valid, invalid, and uncertain results with the file name.
- 4Pick the Box New Item Added to Folder trigger for the folder where contact lists arrive.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one real contact list.
Questions about this workflow
Does this trigger only run for new files?
No. New Item Added to Folder can detect a file, folder, or web link. In your instruction, have Notis proceed only when the new item contains email addresses it can evaluate.
Does Abstract guarantee that an address will reach the inbox?
No. Email Validation checks whether an address appears real and deliverable. It cannot guarantee inbox placement or future deliverability.
