Review Boxhero inventory when a stock request arrives

See the matching Boxhero item details alongside a new stock email, without switching apps to search inventory by hand.

Trigger

New Gmail Message Received Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

List Items

Tool to list items. Use when fetching products with optional location filters and pagination.

Why this helps

Stock requests arrive in email, then require a separate Boxhero search before you can respond.

  • Bring likely matching item details into the email follow-up process.
  • Reduce manual searching during inventory decisions.
  • Keep the request and stock review close together.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Boxhero once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose a name, prompt, report channel, and trigger.
  • 3Tell Notis to review Boxhero items related to each new stock request email and summarize the closest matches and quantities.
  • 4Pick the New Gmail Message Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real stock request email and check the item summary.

Questions about this workflow

Does this update Boxhero quantities?

No. This workflow lists items and summarizes the information Boxhero returns. It does not change inventory.

What if the email does not identify a product clearly?

Notis can flag the request as unclear and summarize the closest possible matches, so you can confirm the item.
