Know when a Box file is trashed or restored

A short status summary helps you spot file changes that may affect ongoing work.

Trigger

Trashed File State Changed

Triggers when a file's trash state changes in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when its trash state changes (e.g., moved to trash or restored from trash).

Action

Create Chat Completion

Tool to create a chat completion using DeepSeek models (deepseek-chat or deepseek-reasoner). Use when you need to generate AI responses to chat conversations. Supports streaming, tool/function calling, and various parameters to control generation behavior (temperature, max_tokens, etc.).

Why this helps

A file moved to trash or restored can disrupt a workflow if its change goes unnoticed.

  • Make the new trash state clear.
  • Include file details returned by Box.
  • Surface a follow-up only when the event or your instruction supports it.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and DeepSeek once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Ask Notis to summarize the new trash state and include available file context.
  • 4Choose the Trashed File State Changed trigger and a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real file state change and review the run report.

Questions about this workflow

Can it restore a trashed file?

No. The available DeepSeek actions generate text and do not change the file state in Box.

Will it know why the file was trashed?

Only if the reason is included in the event data or supplied separately.
