Look up Datascope locations when folder access is shared

A new collaborator can prompt a location lookup to keep operational context close to the shared folder.

Trigger

New Folder Collaboration Created

Triggers when a new collaboration is created on a specific folder in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box folder and fires when new collaborations are detected.

Action

Get All Locations

Tool to retrieve all locations configured in the DataScope system. Use when you need to access location data including addresses, coordinates, and company associations.

Why this helps

When folder access changes, teammates may lack a quick reference for the locations connected to the work.

  • Retrieve configured Datascope location details during onboarding
  • Keep location context close to a new shared folder
  • Make it easier to orient collaborators

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Datascope once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
  • 3Describe that a new folder collaboration should retrieve Datascope locations and report likely relevant location references based on available folder details.
  • 4Pick the Box New Folder Collaboration Created trigger for the folder and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real collaboration and check the locations returned.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow add a new location in Datascope?

No. This workflow uses Get All Locations to retrieve existing locations. Creating a location requires supplied name and code details.

Can it infer the folder's location from its name?

Not reliably. Notis can compare returned details with available folder context, but location identifiers or matching rules should be included in the instruction when needed.
