Make canceled meetings visible in Box
When a calendar event is canceled or deleted, have Notis leave a clear note on the Box file you used to prepare for it.
Trigger
Event Canceled or Deleted
Triggers when a Google Calendar event is cancelled or deleted. Returns minimal data: event_id, summary (if available), and cancellation timestamp.
Action
Create comment
Adds a comment by the user to a specific file, or as a reply to an other comment.
Why this helps
A cancellation notification can be missed while the related brief remains in active use.
- Put cancellation context next to the related meeting material.
- Make it easier to avoid preparing for a canceled event.
- Keep a record of the cancellation on the specified Box file.

- 2In Automations, choose New Automation and name the workflow.
- 3Tell Notis which Box meeting file to comment on when its related event is canceled or deleted.
