Questions about this workflow
Can the Basecamp card be assigned to the same person?
Ask Notis to include the Box assignee or assign the card when the required Basecamp person information is available.
Does this trigger run when an assignment changes state?
No. This event fires when a new assignment is added. Box also provides a separate Task Assignment State Changed trigger.
