Pause when a new benchmark file arrives
New files can mean fresh results, supporting data, or an unrelated upload. Pause before the next automated step acts on the folder change.
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.

Why this helps
A busy shared folder can trigger follow-up before you have confirmed what a new benchmark file contains.
- Adds breathing room after a file arrives
- Supports manual review of new benchmark materials
- Avoids treating every upload as an immediate decision
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and Bench once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to pause briefly whenever a new benchmark file is added so I can inspect it before the next step.
- 4Pick Box New File Added to Folder as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real file added to the monitored folder and review the run report.
Questions about this workflow
Will this detect folders or web links too?
No. This Box trigger monitors new files only.
Can the pause determine whether the file is a benchmark report?
The Sleep action only pauses. It does not inspect or classify the file.
