Review Control D profile settings after a Box invite

Keep access policy changes from getting lost by tying a pending Box invite to a clearly specified Control D profile update.

Trigger

New Pending Collaboration Invite

Triggers when a new pending collaboration invite is created. This trigger monitors the user's pending collaborations and fires when new pending collaboration invites are detected.

Action

Update Profile by ID

Tool to modify an existing profile by ID. Use when you need to update profile fields after confirming the current profile. Example: Update profile '123abc' with new name and settings.

Why this helps

Access requests can trigger several follow-up steps, and the DNS profile change is easy to overlook.

  • Connect an access policy request to a named profile change.
  • Reduce manual follow-up across Box and Control D.
  • Surface incomplete requests in the run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Control D once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to update only fields explicitly requested by an approved Box access policy and only for the Control D profile ID named there; otherwise report missing approval or identifiers.
  • 4Pick the Box New Pending Collaboration Invite trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real request that names the profile, states the exact change, and records approval.

Questions about this workflow

Does a pending invite itself authorize a profile change?

No. Require an explicit approved policy request that names the target profile and change.

What if the policy does not identify a profile?

The automation should report the missing profile ID and make no update.

What can the action update?

The selected Control D profile fields supported by the update action, when the request states the change clearly.
