Check progress data when a Box task changes

A task update may call for a look at the numbers. Ask Notis to run a defined ClickHouse query and report what it finds.

Trigger

Task State Changed

Triggers when a task's status or details change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box task and fires when changes are detected in key fields like status, due date, message, or completion state.

Action

Execute ClickHouse Query

Execute a sql query in clickhouse and return the results. this is the primary action for querying data from clickhouse databases.

Why this helps

Task changes often need a separate data check, and that follow-up can disappear among other work.

  • Run a query when a monitored task's meaningful details change.
  • Bring related progress data into the task change report.
  • Support timely review of due dates, status, or completion.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and ClickHouse once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the task progress check.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis which ClickHouse query to run when the task changes and what findings to summarize.
  • 4Pick Box's Task State Changed trigger and select the task to monitor.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real task change and review the result.
