Give every new Box folder item an intake task
New files and links arrive without a handoff? Make each new item a visible ClickUp intake task.
Trigger
New Item Added to Folder
Triggers when a new item (file, folder, or web link) is added to a folder in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box folder and fires when new items are detected.
Action
Create a task
Creates a new clickup task in a specific list, optionally as a subtask if a `parent` task id (which cannot be a subtask itself and must be in the same list) is provided.
Why this helps
New materials can arrive in shared Box folders without anyone taking ownership of the next step.
- Make new folder items visible in ClickUp.
- Keep intake work together with the item's available details.
- Give the team a consistent place to review incoming material.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and ClickUp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
- 3Describe that a new item in the monitored Box folder should create a ClickUp intake task with its available details.
- 4Pick the Box New Item Added to Folder trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real item added to that folder.
Questions about this workflow
Does this include folders and web links as well as files?
Yes. This trigger covers new files, folders, and web links added to the monitored folder.
Can I limit this to a certain kind of item?
Ask Notis to use the item details available in the event data. The trigger itself monitors new items in the selected folder.
