Give every new Box revision a focused review thread

A new version deserves a fresh place for feedback. Notis can open a Discord thread when a monitored Box document changes versions.

Trigger

New File Version Uploaded

Triggers when a new file version is uploaded to a file in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when new versions are detected.

Action

Create new thread in channel

Creates a new thread in a text or announcement discord channel; requires a 'name' and optionally other details (e.g., 'auto archive duration', an initial 'message') in the request body.

Why this helps

Revision discussions scatter across old chats, making it hard to tell which feedback belongs to the latest file.

  • Give reviewers a dedicated place to discuss the new version.
  • Keep revision feedback separate from older conversations.
  • Reduce the chance that a changed document goes unnoticed.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Discordbot once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a review thread when a new version is uploaded and include available file context.
  • 4Pick the Box New File Version Uploaded trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real Box version upload.
