Reparse the latest Box file version in Affinda
A revised document in Box can trigger a fresh Affinda parse, without relying on someone to remember the second upload.
Trigger

Action
Create Document

Why this helps
A newer Box version can leave previously parsed information out of date unless someone notices and submits the replacement.
- Catch document revisions as they are uploaded.
- Reduce the chance of relying on parse results from an older version.
- Keep Box as the place where updated source documents arrive.
