Right people get Box access when issues arrive
Create an issue in Linear. Notis sees the details and automatically grants Box access to the right people.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Create collaboration
Adds a collaboration for a single user or a single group to a file or folder. collaborations can be created using email address, user ids, or a group ids. if a collaboration is being created with a group, access to this endpoint is dependent on the group's ability to be invited. if collaboration is in `pending` status, the following fields are redacted: - `login` and `name` are hidden if a collaboration was created using `user id`, - `name` is hidden if a collaboration was created using `login`.
Why this helps
Manual permission management creates bottlenecks and access delays.
- Right people gain access instantly
- No permission bottlenecks
- Reduces administrative overhead
- Team focuses on work, not access requests
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Ensure Linear and Box are connected to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis 'When I create an issue, automatically grant Box access to team members listed on it' or use the portal.
- 3Define who gets access: 'Grant access to the issue assignee, the reporter, and anyone tagged @team_finance.'
- 4Select 'Issue Created' as your trigger.
- 5Test by creating an issue with collaborators and verify they gain Box access.
Questions about this workflow
What access level should they have?
You decide - viewer, editor, or contributor. Vary by role, team, or label if needed.
Can I exclude certain people?
Yes - specify who to exclude or use rules like 'Grant access except to externs.'
What if someone is already a collaborator?
Notis will skip them or upgrade their access - you decide the behavior.
