Add an approval note to a Box file
Make decisions visible where the document lives.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action

Why this helps
Approval decisions sit in another system and collaborators cannot see the reasoning from Box.
- Keeps decisions discoverable
- Improves handoff context
- Reduces status questions

- 1Connect Box in Notis.

- 3Tell Notis to add the webhook decision and concise context as a comment on the specified Box file.
- 4Choose an HTTP webhook trigger and select a report channel.
- 5Test with one approval event.
Questions about this workflow
