Look up a credential from its Box record
Keep the credential ID in the Box record and let Notis request the matching Dock certs details when that record changes.
Trigger
File Metadata Changed
Triggers when a file's metadata or properties change in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when changes are detected in key fields like name, description, size, modification time, parent folder, or status.
Action
Retrieve Credential
Tool to retrieve a verifiable credential by its unique ID. If a password was used to persist it, include the same password to decrypt and return the full credential. Otherwise, only metadata is returned.
Why this helps
Finding the right credential details can mean switching between a Box record and Dock certs and copying identifiers by hand.
- Reduce manual copying of credential IDs.
- Bring credential metadata into the run report.
- Use an existing Box record update as a lookup cue.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and Dock certs once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to read the credential ID from the changed Box record, retrieve that credential from Dock certs, and summarize the returned details.
- 4Pick the Box File Metadata Changed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Box record containing a valid Dock certs credential ID.
Questions about this workflow
Does a Box metadata change include the credential ID?
Not necessarily. Keep a valid credential ID in the file's available contents or metadata, and ask Notis to report if it cannot find one.
Will the retrieved credential always include its full contents?
Dock certs may return only metadata unless the same password used to persist the credential is supplied.
