Keep Classmarker questions in step with Box training files

A file change can be an early signal that a related exam question deserves a quick review.

Trigger

File Metadata Changed

Triggers when a file's metadata or properties change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when changes are detected in key fields like name, description, size, modification time, parent folder, or status.

Action

Update Question

Tool to update an existing question in the question bank. Use after confirming the question ID and payload details. Set verify_only=True to validate without applying updates.

Why this helps

A renamed or revised training file can signal a content change, but the related exam question may go unchecked.

  • Prompt review when a source file changes.
  • Catch potentially outdated learning checks.
  • Reduce reliance on memory for content maintenance.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Classmarker once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis how to identify the related Classmarker question and what Box property changes should prompt an update.
  • 4Pick Box's File Metadata Changed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real file change and confirm the question update is appropriate.

Questions about this workflow

Does every metadata change require a question update?

No. Specify which changes matter and instruct Notis to update only when the question content needs revision.

How does it find the matching question?

Provide an identifying convention or question ID, or rely on matching information available in the connected app data.

Can it report changes without editing the question?

You can instruct Notis to report a recommended update for review. The action is an update action, so confirm the behavior with a real example.
