Notis

Start every pull request with a ready-to-use Box folder

Open a PR and the supporting workspace appears without another task on your list.

Trigger

New Pull Request Created

Triggers when a new pull request is created in GitHub, matching the optional configured filters. Emits an event for each newly created pull request. Supports filtering by repository, owner/organisation, author, assignee, label, state, base branch, head branch, and draft status.

Action

Create folder

Creates a new empty folder within the specified parent folder.

Why this helps

Founders lose momentum when every new engineering task requires manual admin before work can begin.

  • Creates consistent project structure
  • Prevents supporting files from living in random places
  • Removes a repetitive setup task

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Box to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with the plain-language instruction: “When a new GitHub pull request is created, create a matching Box project folder.”
  • 3Pick New Pull Request Created as the trigger and select where Notis should report runs.
  • 4Test with one new pull request.

Questions about this workflow

What can the folder hold?

Use it for screenshots, QA evidence, product notes, customer context, or release documentation.

Can Notis report failures?

Yes. Choose a reporting channel during setup so Notis can tell you when a run needs attention.
