Track incoming Box client files in Clientary

New client files can mean a new deliverable, receipt, or request. Give incoming files a visible review step in Clientary.

Trigger

New File Added to Folder

Triggers when a new file is added to a folder in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box folder and fires when new files are detected. Only files (not folders or web links) are monitored.

Action

Create Task

Tool to create a new task in Clientary. Use when you need to create a task with a title, optionally associating it with a project and assignee.

Why this helps

New files can accumulate in shared folders without anyone owning the first review.

  • Put new file reviews on a task list you already use.
  • Use available file details to make the task recognizable.
  • Create a consistent first review step for incoming documents.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Clientary once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis to create a Clientary review task for each new file in the relevant Box folder, using available file details.
  • 3Choose the Box New File Added to Folder trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 4Test with one real file and confirm the task provides enough context to identify it.

Questions about this workflow

Can this extract information from the file contents?

The trigger provides a new file event and available file details. If you need content reviewed, make sure the file contents are accessible to Notis or provide the needed information in your instruction.

Will this also create tasks for folders?

No. The selected Box trigger monitors new files only, not folders or web links.
