Classify Box files after OneDrive updates

Changes can trigger the right security label automatically.

Trigger

OneDrive Item Updated Trigger

Triggers when an existing file or folder is modified in OneDrive. Uses Gmail-style state management and only detects actual modifications, not new creations.

Action

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`.

Why this helps

Security labels fall behind when file changes rely on manual review.

  • Keeps labels current
  • Supports governance routines
  • Reduces manual classification

  • 1Connect OneDrive and Box once in Notis.
  • 2Create the automation for update based classification.
  • 3Describe the classification rule and related Box file.
  • 4Pick the OneDrive Item Updated trigger and a report channel.
  • 5Test with one representative update.
