Make a Box knowledge area easier to query
When a Notion knowledge hub changes, have Notis create a Box AI agent for the associated document collection.
Trigger
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Action
Create ai agent
Creates an ai agent. at least one of the following capabilities must be provided: `ask`, `text gen`, `extract`.
Why this helps
A growing document collection can make it harder to locate answers without repeatedly searching across files.
- Create a more direct way to ask about a document collection.
- Reduce repeated manual searching through Box files.
- Connect a Notion knowledge hub to its supporting documents.
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 create a Box AI agent for the associated knowledge area when its Notion page is created or updated.
- 4Choose the Notion All Page Events trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one scoped knowledge page and verify the intended Box agent setup.
Questions about this workflow
Can the agent use every capability?
Box requires at least one supported capability, such as ask, text generation, or extract.
Will all page activity create an agent?
The All Page Events trigger is broad. Explain which knowledge pages should prompt an agent in the instruction.

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.
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`.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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`.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Add domain to list of allowed collaboration domains
Creates a new entry in the list of allowed domains to allow collaboration for.
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.
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.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Add or update user avatar
Adds or updates a user avatar.
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.
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.
Add shared link to folder
Adds a shared link to a folder.
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.
