Make important Box file changes easier to review
When a tracked file changes, open a Cody conversation to capture the change details and decide what deserves a closer look.
Trigger
File Metadata Changed
Triggers when a file's metadata or properties change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when changes are detected in key fields like name, description, size, modification time, parent folder, or status.
Action
Create Conversation
Tool to create a new conversation with a specified bot. Use when starting a new conversation thread with optional focus mode to limit bot's knowledge base to specific documents.
Why this helps
Changes to a file's name, location, or status can go unnoticed when there's no simple review prompt.
- Put meaningful file changes in a focused review conversation.
- Prompt a consistent human check when file details change.
- Keep run context available without searching manually.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and Cody once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and ask Notis to start a Cody conversation that summarizes available change details and lists review questions.
- 3Pick the Box File Metadata Changed trigger for a specific file.
- 4Choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test after changing a real file property and inspect the conversation.
Questions about this workflow
Can Cody compare the file's old and new contents?
This trigger monitors metadata and properties. It does not promise to provide file contents or a historical baseline, so supply those separately if a comparison is needed.
Will the workflow edit the Box file?
No. The selected Cody action starts a conversation and does not change the Box file.
