Pair Box security sharing with a Cloudflare WAF inventory

When a security folder is shared with a new collaborator, let Notis retrieve the account's WAF list inventory for a quick review.

Trigger

New Folder Collaboration Created

Triggers when a new collaboration is created on a specific folder in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box folder and fires when new collaborations are detected.

Action

List WAF Lists

Tool to fetch all waf lists (no items) for an account. use after confirming account id.

Why this helps

Sharing a security folder can call for a related access check, but that follow-up often gets lost between systems.

  • Pair a security folder access change with a Cloudflare WAF inventory.
  • Make the follow-up visible in the automation report.
  • Reduce context switching during a security review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Cloudflare once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the security access review.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to identify the relevant Cloudflare account and list its WAF lists for review.
  • 4Choose New Folder Collaboration Created as the trigger and select the Box security folder.
  • 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real folder collaboration event.

Questions about this workflow

Does the WAF list action return list entries?

No. It lists WAF lists for the account, without their items.

Does this grant or revoke Cloudflare access?

No. It produces an inventory for review and does not modify account members or permissions.
