Let an updated Box file cue a postcard
A new version of a tracked file can prompt a timely postcard without relying on someone to remember the next step.
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
Send Postcard
Tool to send a postcard via u.s. mail with specified recipient, sender, and front/back images. use after confirming recipient addresses and design urls. example: send postcard(to name='john doe', ..., front image='https://...', back image='https://...')
Why this helps
A meaningful document update happens, but the related customer touchpoint is easy to forget.
- Tie a physical touchpoint to a real file version event.
- Reuse a prepared postcard design and confirmed mailing details.
- Keep the automation focused on a specific tracked Box file.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Box and Docupost once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis which new file versions should prompt a postcard, where to get the front and back image URLs and confirmed recipient details, and when to ask before sending.
- 4Pick the Box New File Version Uploaded trigger for the tracked file and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real version update and confirm the recipient and postcard design.
Questions about this workflow
Can the file event provide postcard images?
The trigger reports that a new version was uploaded. Supply the approved front and back image URLs and recipient address in your instruction or another accessible source.
Will every version send a postcard?
The trigger fires for new versions of the tracked file. Tell Notis which versions warrant a postcard and have it ask when the reason or details are unclear.
