Turn client comments into a proposal check-in

When a client comments on a Box file, Notis can check which proposals have been opened and bring the result to your report channel.

Trigger

New File Comment Added

Triggers when a new comment is added to a file in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when new comments are detected.

Action

Get Opened Proposals

Tool to retrieve all opened proposals. use when you need proposals that recipients have opened.

Why this helps

Comments and proposal engagement are spread across apps, so it takes extra effort to connect a conversation to a proposal follow-up.

  • Use a client comment as a timely cue to check proposal engagement.
  • See opened proposal information without a separate manual lookup.
  • Keep follow-up decisions in one run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Better Proposals once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to check opened proposals after a new comment on the selected Box file and summarize relevant results.
  • 4Pick the Box New File Comment Added trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real file comment and review the run report.

Questions about this workflow

Will this reply to the Box comment?

No. The selected Better Proposals action retrieves opened proposals. The workflow reports information for you to review.

What if the comment does not identify a client or proposal?

Include a matching rule in your instruction or treat the opened proposals list as a review prompt. Notis cannot infer missing client context.
