Check Dotsimple media when new Box creative arrives

Keep campaign assets easier to find. A new Box creative prompts a quick look through your Dotsimple media library, with findings sent in your run report.

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

List Media Files

Tool to list all media files with optional pagination. use when you need to retrieve or browse uploaded media files page by page.

Why this helps

Creative files can be scattered across storage and social tools, making it hard to know whether an asset is ready to use or already uploaded.

  • Spot likely existing media before uploading again.
  • Keep asset review tied to the folder where new creative arrives.
  • Get a concise report without switching between apps.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Dotsimple once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to review Dotsimple media for a likely match to each new Box file and report the findings.
  • 4Pick the Box New File Added to Folder trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real creative file and check the report.

Questions about this workflow

Does this upload the Box file into Dotsimple?

No. The available Dotsimple action lists media files; Notis can report likely matches but this workflow does not upload files.

Can it know whether two files are identical?

It can compare the metadata returned by Dotsimple with details available for the Box file. If the available details are insufficient, the report should say so rather than claim an exact match.
