Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 2Create an automation named WhatsApp file access.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the requested file and add a shared link with the access settings you specify.

Questions about this workflow

Can I limit the link to people with the URL?

Yes. State the access preference in the instruction and use the Box shared link action.

Will Notis send the link back in WhatsApp?

This workflow creates the link in Box and reports the result. Sending a WhatsApp reply would require a separate supported action.
