Route employee change forms into Breathe HR

Keep signed change paperwork in Box and let Notis prepare the corresponding Breathe HR request, with unclear or incomplete details surfaced for review.

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.

Action

Create Employee Change Request

Tool to create a change request for an employee field. Use when you need to update employee information such as job title, department, or salary.

Why this helps

Employee changes can sit in a folder until someone remembers to transfer them into the HR system.

  • Reduce follow-up needed to transfer employee changes from documents.
  • Keep a request for review rather than guessing at an employee or field.
  • Get a run report that points out missing context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Breathe HR once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to read new employee change forms and create a change request only when the employee and requested change are clear.
  • 4Pick New File Added to Folder in Box as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real change form.

Questions about this workflow

Can this update an employee record directly?

The available action creates an employee change request. It does not directly update the employee record.

What if the form does not identify the employee or requested field?

Ask Notis to report the missing information for review instead of creating an uncertain request.
