Turn a Box cache cleanup request into a Codemagic action

When a build discussion identifies a specific cache to remove, Notis can send that cleanup request to Codemagic.

Trigger

Comment Changed

Triggers when a comment's content or details change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box comment and detects when any meaningful field changes, such as message text edits, tagged message changes, or modification timestamp updates.

Action

Delete Specific Cache

Tool to delete a specific cache from an application. Use when a cached build artifact needs to be removed. The deletion is performed asynchronously and returns immediately with a 202 Accepted status.

Why this helps

Cache cleanup requests are easy to lose in a discussion, and finding the right app and cache takes extra clicks.

  • Capture explicit cleanup requests from Box comments.
  • Target the named application and cache.
  • Report that deletion was accepted for processing.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Codemagic once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the cleanup workflow.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to delete a specific cache only when the comment clearly names its app and cache identifier.
  • 4Pick the Box Comment Changed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real comment that names the cache and app to clean up.

Questions about this workflow

Does Codemagic remove the cache immediately?

The deletion request is asynchronous. The action returns that it was accepted, and processing completes later.

What if the comment asks to clear everything?

This workflow is for a specific cache. Use the separate all-caches action only if you create an automation that clearly requests that broader cleanup.
