Comment on the Box source file behind a new slide

Keep source documents and deck decisions connected without manual follow-up.

Trigger

New Slide Added

Fires when a new slide is added to a Google Slides presentation.

Action

Create comment

Adds a comment by the user to a specific file, or as a reply to an other comment.

Why this helps

Important context about why a slide changed gets lost between the deck and source files.

  • Preserves decision context
  • Keeps source owners informed
  • Reduces status chasing

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Slides and Box once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named Slide Source Comment.
  • 3Tell Notis to comment on the relevant Box source file with the new slide context and any review request.
  • 4Pick the Google Slides New Slide Added trigger and choose a report destination.
  • 5Test it with one real source file.

Questions about this workflow

Can the comment include the slide topic?

Yes. Ask Notis to summarize the new slide and include the relevant context.

What if no source file is obvious?

Tell Notis to report the missing source instead of creating a comment.
