Send new Box contracts for signature
A contract lands in its Box folder. Notis can prepare and send the signature request in Dropbox Sign from your instructions.
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 Signature Request
Tool to create and send a new signature request with documents. Use when you need to send documents for electronic signature. The action sends emails to all specified signers with links to view and sign the documents. Supports multiple signers, CC recipients, custom fields, form fields, and various signing options. Documents can be uploaded directly or provided via publicly accessible URLs.
Why this helps
New contracts can sit in Box while someone remembers to start a separate signature request.
- Reduce document handoffs between Box and Dropbox Sign.
- Start signature requests promptly when a new file arrives.
- Use a plain language instruction for recipient and signing details.
