Route restored Box files into Backendless review

Make restored files easier to revisit by moving their related Backendless resource to a review location.

Trigger

Trashed File State Changed

Triggers when a file's trash state changes in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when its trash state changes (e.g., moved to trash or restored from trash).

Action

Move File

Tool to move a file or directory within backendless file storage. use when relocating resources to a new path after verifying source and destination.

Why this helps

A restored file can return to active work without its related Backendless materials being brought back into view.

  • Bring related Backendless resources back into view.
  • Create a consistent review step after restoration.
  • Reduce manual file organization.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Backendless once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for restored file review.
  • 3Specify the Backendless source and destination paths and how the restored Box file should identify the related resource.
  • 4Pick Trashed File State Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real file restoration and verify the move.

Questions about this workflow

Does the trigger fire for both trashing and restoring?

Yes. It detects changes to the file's trash state, such as being moved to trash or restored.

Can it determine a Backendless path from Box by itself?

Only if a clear relationship is available in the event or supplied by you. Provide the Backendless paths and matching rule in your instruction.
