Keep file approvals with the document

A button tap can record a clear approval beside the Box file, where the decision is easier to find later.

Trigger

Callback Query Received

Triggered when a user taps an inline keyboard button attached to one of your bot's messages.

Action

Create comment

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

Why this helps

An approval in chat may be separated from the document and hard to cite during a handoff.

  • Keep a lightweight approval record on the file.
  • Make handoffs easier by preserving decision context.
  • Use a deliberate action to capture approval.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Box to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or describe the desired outcome to Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use one instruction asking Notis to add an approval comment when the designated Telegram approval button is tapped for an identified file.
  • 4Select Telegram Callback Query Received as the trigger and choose a run-report channel.
  • 5Test with the real approval button and confirm the correct file receives the comment.

Questions about this workflow

Is a comment the same as a formal signature?

No. A comment records context but does not replace a formal signature or approval process.

What if the button is not tied to a specific file?

Tell Notis to act only when it can identify the related Box file from the button context.
