Start document review when a Box file arrives
A new file in your Box review folder can trigger the AppDrag process that gets it into the right queue.
Trigger
New File Added to Folder
Triggers when a new file is added to a folder in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box folder and fires when new files are detected. Only files (not folders or web links) are monitored.
Action
Execute Cloud Backend function via POST
Tool to execute a Cloud Backend API function via POST on the default environment. Use when you need to call a function with POST parameters and optional APIKey.
Why this helps
When files arrive without a clear handoff, someone has to notice them and remember to start review.
- Start review promptly after file arrival
- Avoid repeatedly checking a folder for new documents
- Pass available file details to your review logic
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and AppDrag once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what outcome you want from a channel.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to submit each new file and available details to your AppDrag review function with POST.
- 4Choose the Box New File Added to Folder trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real file in the monitored folder.
