Tag Box files from new YouTube activity
Turn channel signals into organized, searchable Box records.
Trigger
New YouTube Activity
Triggers when a new activity is detected on a YouTube channel.
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
Files accumulate without consistent metadata, making follow-up and reporting harder.
- Improves retrieval
- Supports consistent reporting
- Reduces manual tagging
