Carry email handling rules to Box folders

When an incoming instruction clearly identifies a folder and its handling label, ask Notis to apply the existing Box classification.

Trigger

New Gmail Message Received Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

Add classification to folder

Adds a classification to a folder by specifying the label of the classification to add. this api can also be called by including the enterprise id in the url explicitly, for example `/folders/:id/enterprise 12345/securityclassification-6vmvochwuwo`.

Why this helps

Folder-level handling rules can remain in email even when collaborators work from Box.

  • Keep a folder's handling status visible in Box
  • Reduce missed classification follow-up
  • Apply the instruction where the folder is used

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, name existing Box classification labels and ask Notis to classify only clearly identified folders from explicit handling rules.
  • 4Pick New Gmail Message Received as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real instruction and folder.

Questions about this workflow

Do the classification labels need to exist?

Yes. Specify labels already available in your Box enterprise. This action adds a classification to a folder by label.

What if the message mentions multiple folders?

Tell Notis how to handle multiple clear matches, and ask it to report any ambiguous ones for review.
