Why this helps
Questions buried in file comments can be easy to miss, and researching them pulls attention away from the document.
- Catch new scriptural questions where they appear.
- Search for comment themes in a specified translation.
- Make follow-up easier by keeping the comment and result in one run report.
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 search your chosen Bible version using the new comment's question or theme.
- 4Pick Box's New File Comment Added trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real comment and review the search results.
Questions about this workflow
Does this run when an existing comment is edited?
No. This trigger fires when a new comment is added to a file. Comment edits use a separate event.
Can it answer the question definitively?
It can search for verses containing a specified query. Ask Notis to return relevant results for review rather than treating a keyword search as a complete interpretation.
Can I specify the Bible version?
Yes. Include the version you want in the automation instruction. Search Verses searches within a version.
