Give new release collaborators the Beamer context

New access to launch material often means someone needs the customer update history too.

Trigger

New Folder Collaboration Created

Action

Get Posts

Tool to retrieve a list of posts. use when you need ids and titles of posts for further operations.

Why this helps

New contributors can spend time rediscovering which Beamer announcements already cover a release.

  • Retrieve Beamer posts relevant to a newly shared release folder.
  • Give the team a concise handoff context for launch communications.
  • Avoid assuming a collaborator's identity or permissions when the event lacks detail.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Beamer once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to find Beamer posts related to the Box release folder and summarize them as context for the new collaboration.
  • 4Pick the Box New Folder Collaboration Created trigger for the release folder.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real collaboration.

Questions about this workflow

Does this send the summary to the new collaborator?

It sends a run report to the channel you choose. The available events do not provide an action to message a Box collaborator directly.

Can it identify the matching posts automatically?

It can search the retrieved Beamer post list using the folder and event context. If that context is sparse, add a release name or matching hint to your instruction.
