Keep BigML projects tidy when source files are retired
When a source file is trashed, Notis can check the project context and remove the project only when your instruction confirms it is no longer in use.
Trigger
Trashed File State Changed
Triggers when a file's trash state changes in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when its trash state changes (e.g., moved to trash or restored from trash).
Action
Delete Project
Tool to delete an existing project. use when you need to permanently remove a project resource after confirming it is not in use by other resources.
Why this helps
Retired source files can leave stale projects behind, while deleting a project that still supports work would be costly.
- Prompt cleanup when a tracked source file is trashed.
- Keep deletion conditional on confirming the project is unused.
- Reduce stale project clutter after source retirement.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and BigML once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with an instruction to confirm the related project is unused before deleting it.
- 3Pick the Box Trashed File State Changed trigger for the source file.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real trash event and a disposable BigML project id.
Questions about this workflow
Will it always delete the project?
Your instruction should require confirmation that the project is unused. The delete action permanently removes a project, so test the condition with a disposable project first.
Does this restore or change the Box file?
No. The Box event starts the workflow, and the BigML action deletes a project if the instructed condition is met.
