- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to use a new Box file comment's charity name or cause terms to search Daffy and summarize possible nonprofit results without treating a result as verified.
- 4Pick the Box New File Comment Added trigger, then choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real comment containing a charity or cause suggestion.
Questions about this workflow
Does this verify that a nonprofit is the intended recipient?
No. Search results are candidates. Review the nonprofit details and confirm the intended recipient before making any giving decision.
What if the comment does not name a charity?
The report should say there is not enough information to search and ask for a clearer name or cause phrase.
