Turn approved Box tasks into credentials

An approval already recorded in Box can move straight into credential issuance when the award information is ready.

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, issue, and send credential

Tool to create, issue, and send a credential in a single request. use when group id and recipient details are ready.

Why this helps

Approval is recorded in a Box task, but issuing the credential is a separate step that can be forgotten or delayed.

  • Use the task assignment state change as a clear review moment.
  • Reduce handoffs between an approval and credential delivery.
  • Keep issuance conditional on an approved state and complete credential details.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Certifier once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the approval outcome.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to check whether the changed assignment is approved and, if so, create, issue, and send the specified credential using the available recipient details and group ID.
  • 4Pick the Box Task Assignment State Changed trigger for the relevant task.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real approved assignment.

Questions about this workflow

Will a rejected or incomplete assignment issue a credential?

Tell Notis to issue only when the changed assignment state indicates approval.

What does Certifier need to create and send the credential?

The combined action requires a group ID and recipient details, along with the credential information in your instruction or source context.
