Trigger

New File Added to Folder

Triggers when a new file is added to a folder in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box folder and fires when new files are detected. Only files (not folders or web links) are monitored.

Action

Append Phone to Contact

Tool to append phone numbers to contact records using name and address. Use when you need to find phone numbers (business or residential) associated with a person's name and address. Returns primary phone with type classification and additional phone numbers if available.

Why this helps

Contact records with no phone number can create extra research before a time-sensitive follow-up.

  • Find phone numbers associated with a name and address.
  • See primary phone type and additional numbers when available.
  • Avoid re-researching contacts each time a file arrives.
