Trigger

Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.

Action

Why this helps

Folder access work is easy to forget when it lives outside the task system.

  • Makes access requests actionable
  • Reduces manual Box navigation
  • Provides a clear run report

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Todoist and Box in the Notis portal once.
  • 2Create a new automation and name it for folder sharing.
  • 3Describe that Notis should locate the requested Box folder and add a shared link with the task's access instructions.
  • 4Select Todoist New Task Created, then choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real folder request.

Questions about this workflow

Can I include an expiration request?

Include the expiration requirement in the Todoist task and ask Notis to follow it when supported.

Does this change the original task?

The automation runs the Box action and reports the result; task edits require a separate instruction and supported action.
