Keep file status visible in Box
Carry a clear status update from Telegram into metadata on the corresponding Box file.
Trigger
New Message Received
Triggered when your bot receives a new message in a private chat, group, or supergroup. To receive every message in a group, Privacy Mode must be disabled for the bot in BotFather.
Action
Create metadata instance on file
Applies an instance of a metadata template to a file. in most cases only values that are present in the metadata template will be accepted, except for the `global.properties` template which accepts any key-value pair.
Why this helps
A document's current state can live only in a message, making it hard to scan or hand off.
- Keep status attached to the relevant file.
- Make document state easier to scan and search.
- Reduce repeated status questions.
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 ask Notis for it conversationally.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to add the announced status to the identified Box file using an available metadata template.
- 4Select Telegram New Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real status update and confirm the metadata template supports the requested value.
