Define a word from an edited Box comment
Turn an edited comment that asks about a word into a quick definition lookup.
Trigger
Comment Changed
Triggers when a comment's content or details change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box comment and detects when any meaningful field changes, such as message text edits, tagged message changes, or modification timestamp updates.
Action
Get Word Definition
Tool to get the definition of a word. use when you need to find the meaning of a specific word. e.g., "define the word apple."
Why this helps
An unfamiliar term in a document discussion can interrupt focused work while you switch tools to find its meaning.
- Resolve a term from the comment thread that raised the question.
- Send the definition to a consistent report channel.
- Avoid a separate manual lookup for clearly requested words.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and Apiverve once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation with a name and a prompt asking Notis to detect a clear request to define a word in the changed comment, look it up, and report the definition.
- 3Pick the Comment Changed trigger for the Box comment you want to monitor.
- 4Choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real comment edit that asks for a word definition.
Questions about this workflow
Does every comment edit cause a lookup?
The prompt should ask Notis to look up a word only when the changed comment clearly requests a definition.
What input does Apiverve need?
The Get Word Definition action needs a specific word.
Where will the definition appear?
Notis sends the result to the report channel selected for the automation.
