See new Box folder intake in Amplitude

Capture incoming folder activity as analytics events and keep a clearer view of operational intake.

Trigger

New Item Added to Folder

Triggers when a new item (file, folder, or web link) is added to a folder in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box folder and fires when new items are detected.

Action

Send Events to Amplitude

Send events to amplitude using the http v2 api. this action allows you to send events to amplitude for tracking user behavior and analytics. it supports all amplitude event fields, handles proper validation, and includes comprehensive error handling.

Why this helps

New materials arrive in shared folders without an easy way to review intake patterns alongside other signals.

  • Record new item activity for a monitored folder.
  • Review incoming files, folders, and web links as events.
  • Reduce manual tallying of shared folder activity.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Amplitude once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3Ask Notis to send an Amplitude event when a new item is added to the monitored Box folder, using available item details.
  • 4Pick the Box New Item Added to Folder trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real folder addition and confirm the event appears in Amplitude.

Questions about this workflow

What kinds of items count?

The trigger covers new files, folders, and web links added to the monitored Box folder.

Can I track files only?

Yes. Use the separate Box New File Added to Folder trigger if the workflow should respond only to files.
