Refresh the Bible book catalog when a Box reference changes

When a reference file changes, have Notis retrieve the book catalog for a quick index review.

Trigger

File Metadata Changed

Triggers when a file's metadata or properties change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when changes are detected in key fields like name, description, size, modification time, parent folder, or status.

Action

Get All Books

Tool to retrieve a list of all books in the bible. use when you need a catalog of every biblical book.

Why this helps

A renamed or updated reference file can leave its index work waiting on a separate lookup.

  • Retrieve the full book list in response to a reference file update.
  • Give index review a consistent catalog to work from.
  • Keep the lookup tied to the file change that prompted it.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Api bible once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe in one instruction how Notis should retrieve the Bible book catalog and include it in the run report when the reference file changes.
  • 4Pick Box's File Metadata Changed trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real metadata change and review the catalog.

Questions about this workflow

Does this identify which Bible books the file mentions?

Get All Books retrieves the list of all books. It does not extract mentions from the Box file.

Can this trigger watch every Box file?

The event monitors a specific Box file. Choose the reference file you want to watch when selecting the trigger.

Can it retrieve books for one particular version?

Get All Books retrieves the catalog of books. For sections within a book in a specific Bible version, use Get Sections after obtaining the Bible and book IDs.
