Make the next creative phase easier to start

When an assignment changes state, create a Canva folder for the next phase of follow-up work.

Trigger

Task Assignment State Changed

Triggers when a task assignment's state changes. This trigger monitors task assignments for a specific task and detects when the resolution_state changes (e.g., from incomplete to completed, or from completed to approved/rejected).

Action

Create user or sub folder

This api creates a folder in a canva user's projects at the top level or within another folder, returning the new folder's id and additional details upon success.

Why this helps

A completed or approved Box assignment can leave the next creative step without a prepared workspace.

  • Prepare a workspace for the next phase after task resolution.
  • Reduce the delay between a decision and follow-up work.
  • Keep creative follow-up organized.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Canva once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3In one plain-language instruction, specify which assignment state changes should lead Notis to create a Canva folder and how to name it.
  • 4Choose the Box Task Assignment State Changed trigger, select a report channel, and test with one real state change.

Questions about this workflow

Does it know what the next phase should be?

Only if your instruction defines the relevant state change and the intended folder naming or purpose.

Does it create a folder for every state change?

Describe the states that matter in your instruction so Notis can decide when folder creation is appropriate.
