Trigger

Action
Create a Vault
Tool to create a new vault (folder) within an existing parent vault in a Basecamp project. Use when you need to organize documents and files hierarchically by creating nested vaults.
Why this helps
Support files become scattered when teams create storage folders only after problems appear.
- Create consistent file structure
- Make future retrieval easier
- Reduce ad hoc folder creation

- 2Create an automation named Ticket customer vault.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Basecamp vault for qualifying Zendesk ticket context.
- 4Pick the New Zendesk Ticket trigger and choose a report channel.
