When a teammate adds a station abbreviation to a trip file comment, fetch the station details and share a short report.

Trigger

New File Comment Added

Action

Get Station Info

Tool to fetch detailed information for a specified bart station. use after you have a station's abbreviation. (e.g., get station info for 'balb')

Why this helps

Useful station information gets lost in document comments while people hunt for the right transit reference.

  • Respond to trip updates captured in Box comments.
  • Get station details without a separate manual lookup.
  • Avoid guessing when a comment lacks a station abbreviation.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Bart once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose its name, prompt, report channel, and trigger.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to inspect the new comment for a confirmed BART station abbreviation and retrieve that station's information.
  • 4Pick the Box New File Comment Added trigger for the relevant file and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real comment that includes a station abbreviation.

Questions about this workflow

What if a comment only contains a station name?

The action requires a station abbreviation. Ask Notis to report that the abbreviation needs confirmation rather than guessing.

Does this monitor all Box comments?

The trigger monitors a specific Box file. Select the relevant file when setting up the trigger.
