Prepare intake documents with Box skill cards

A new Notion intake record can prompt Notis to add the relevant Box skill cards to its file, reducing a separate document preparation step.

Trigger

New Page

Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.

Action

Create box skill cards on file

Applies one or more box skills metadata cards to a file.

Why this helps

Intake tasks can stall when each new document requires someone to remember an additional processing action.

  • Make document preparation part of intake follow-up.
  • Reduce repeated manual processing steps.
  • Apply a consistent treatment to incoming files.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Box to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis what you want in plain language.
  • 3Ask Notis to apply the relevant Box skill cards to the file identified by a new Notion intake record.
  • 4Choose the Notion New Page trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one intake record and verify the intended cards appear on the Box file.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Box. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion triggers

Box actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Add classification to file

Adds a classification to a file 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 `/files/:id//enterprise 12345/securityclassification-6vmvochwuwo`.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

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`.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Add domain to list of allowed collaboration domains

Creates a new entry in the list of allowed domains to allow collaboration for.

ActionInstant

Comment Created

Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.

TriggerInstant

Add initial classifications

When an enterprise does not yet have any classifications, this api call initializes the classification template with an initial set of classifications. if an enterprise already has a classification, the template will already exist and instead an api call should be made to add additional classifications.

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

Add or update user avatar

Adds or updates a user avatar.

ActionInstant

Database Created

Triggers when a new Notion database (the container) is created. A database is the post-2025-09-03 container that holds one or more data sources. This trigger fires for the container's creation event (`database.created`), distinct from `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` which fires when a new data source is added to an existing database. Most customers calling Notion's `POST /v1/databases` (the legacy API) or creating a database via the Notion UI will see this event. Adding a new data source to an existing database fires `data_source.created` instead — use `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` for that. Notion's payload puts `entity.type: "block"` (the container is a `child_database` block in the content tree) and `entity.id` is the database id.

Add shared link to file

Adds a shared link to a file.

ActionInstant

Data Source Created

Triggers when a new Notion data source is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload's `data.parent` carries the data source's tree parent (typically the teamspace) for downstream filtering. A single template-based database creation can fire multiple `data_source.created` events at once — one per data source the template instantiates.

TriggerInstant

Add shared link to folder

Adds a shared link to a folder.

ActionInstant

Data Source Schema Updated

Triggers when a Notion data source's schema is updated. Fires on column add / remove / rename. Payload includes `data.updated_properties: [{id, name, action}]` so consumers can discriminate the kind of change downstream. Optional `data_source_id` filter scopes to schema changes on a single data source. When omitted, fires for any schema change in the workspace the integration has access to. Note: adding a column also fires `page.properties_updated` once per existing row in the data source. Customers wanting a single structural-change signal should use this trigger.

Add shared link to web link

Adds a shared link to a web link.
