Move new Box contracts into Docnify signing
Stop tracking contract handoffs by hand. Ask Notis to prepare and send the Docnify document when a new contract arrives in Box.
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
Send Document
Tool to send a document for signing. Use after confirming the document's ID, adding recipients, and uploading content.
Why this helps
A contract can sit in Box while someone remembers to create or send its Docnify signing request.
- Reduce manual contract handoffs
- Start signing promptly after a contract arrives
- Keep the signing instruction and run report in one place
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and Docnify once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, explain which Box files are contracts, how to identify the matching Docnify document, and who should sign. The document must already be available in Docnify.
- 4Choose New File Added to Folder as the trigger, then choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real contract and confirm the intended Docnify document and recipients before relying on it.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a Docnify document from the Box file?
This workflow uses the Docnify Send Document action. Specify how Notis should identify an existing Docnify document and its recipients; do not assume the Box file is automatically uploaded or converted.
What if the Box file has no signer details?
Provide the signer details in your instruction or ensure Notis can identify them from available document or account data. Missing recipient details cannot be inferred reliably.
