Send new Box PDFs for signature with Docuseal
A new PDF lands in Box. Notis can use it to start a Docuseal signing workflow and report what happened.
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
Create Submission From PDF
Tool to create a one-off submission from a pdf file. use when you need to upload a pdf and initiate a signature workflow with optional custom field values and webhook notifications.
Why this helps
Starting a signature request manually means switching apps and re-entering the same document details.
- Reduce the steps between receiving a PDF and starting signatures.
- Keep the original document in Box while initiating signing in Docuseal.
- Get a run report so you can spot requests that need attention.

- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real PDF and confirm the Docuseal request details.
Questions about this workflow
Does this trigger on folders too?
No. This Box trigger watches for new files in the selected folder, not folders or web links.
Can the automation decide who should sign?
Describe the signer rules in your instruction. If the available file or request information does not identify a signer, supply that information in your instruction or workflow process.
