Questions about this workflow
What starts this workflow?
A new task created on the specific Box file selected for monitoring.
Can it include due dates and task messages?
Ask Notis to include those when they are returned by Box. The event description does not guarantee every detail is present.
Does it create or assign the task?
No. Box already creates the task; this automation sends an email about it.
