Carry document processing requests into Box Skills

When an email requests processing of a specific document, ask Notis to apply the relevant Box Skills cards to the matching file.

Trigger

New Gmail Message Received Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

Create box skill cards on file

Applies one or more box skills metadata cards to a file.

Why this helps

A document processing request can get separated from the file that needs structured extraction or analysis.

  • Connect a processing request to the file it concerns
  • Apply useful Box Skills output cards to the right document
  • Reduce manual follow-up between email and Box

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Box once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, identify the document requests and specify which Box Skills cards to apply to a clearly matched file.
  • 4Pick New Gmail Message Received as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real request and Box file.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create new Box Skills?

The action applies one or more Box Skills metadata cards to a file. It does not create a new skill.

What if a message does not name the file clearly?

Ask Notis to report the missing file details for review rather than apply cards to a possible match.
