Keep a Convolo character's backstory aligned with Box guidance
When a tracked guidance file changes in Box, ask Notis to refresh the related Convolo character backstory.
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
Update Character Backstory
Tool to update a character's backstory. Use when you need to modify the backstory of an existing character after confirming its ID. Only the provided fields will be updated.
Why this helps
Character context can fall out of sync when the source guidance changes and updates rely on someone remembering to edit it.
- Tie a backstory refresh to a change in a specific Box file.
- Use updated source guidance as context for the change.
- Reduce the chance that character context is left stale.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and Convolo AI once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis what to do from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, say to review the changed Box file and update the backstory of the specified existing Convolo character using its relevant guidance.
- 4Pick the Box File Metadata Changed trigger for that file.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real change. Confirm the character ID before using the backstory update action.
