Turn Box file comments into website checks

Add a clear URL and request in a file comment, and Notis can start the right Browse AI run for follow-up.

Trigger

New File Comment Added

Action

Run Robot

This tool allows you to trigger the execution of a browseai robot on demand. the tool will run a specified robot with the provided parameters and return the task details. it requires a robot id and optional input parameters (such as url, search term, or other parameters) to configure the robot's execution. it is useful for: - starting robot executions programmatically - automating data collection tasks - triggering robots with custom parameters - integrating robot execution in workflows

Why this helps

A useful website check request gets buried in comments, and the person responsible has to copy it into another tool.

  • Make file comments actionable without switching tools.
  • Keep the request connected to the Box file under discussion.
  • Route the run report to a channel your team already checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Browse AI in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation with a name that describes the website check.
  • 3Tell Notis to run the named robot using the URL and request written in each new file comment.
  • 4Choose the Box New File Comment Added trigger for the relevant file and select a report channel.
  • 5Test with a real comment that includes a URL and an unambiguous request.

Questions about this workflow

What if the comment does not include a URL?

The event is for new comments on a monitored file. State how Notis should handle comments without a URL, such as reporting that the request needs more detail.

Can a comment change trigger this too?

This workflow uses the new-comment event. A separate Comment Changed trigger can be used for edits, but it will not detect a new comment by itself.
