Send a Gmail notification when a file is uploaded to Box
Launch this workflow to connect
Box &
Gmail
!
■Overview
Do you manually notify each relevant person via Gmail every time you save an important file to Box? This manual process can lead to notification delays and missed updates. With this workflow, whenever a file is uploaded to a specific Box folder, a Gmail notification is automatically sent to the configured recipients. By integrating Box with Gmail, you can eliminate these manual tasks and share information quickly and reliably.
■Who is this template for?
- Anyone who uses Box and Gmail regularly and manually sends notifications about file sharing
- Anyone who wants to quickly and reliably notify relevant people when files are uploaded to a Box shared with their team
- Anyone who wants to automate routine Gmail notifications and focus on their core responsibilities
■Benefits of using this template
- Automatically send Gmail notifications when a file is uploaded to Box, reducing the time spent on manual communication
- Prevent human errors such as incorrect recipients and missed notifications, enabling reliable information sharing and improving operational reliability
■How the Flowbot works
- First, connect Box and Gmail to Yoom
- Next, select Box as the trigger and set the action to “When a file is uploaded to a folder”
- Finally, set the Gmail “Send an email” action in the operation and specify the recipients, subject, message, and other details for the notification
* “Trigger”: An action that starts the flow. “Operation”: An action that processes information within the flow after the trigger starts.
■Customizing this workflow
- In the Box trigger settings, specify the folder you want to monitor for notifications
- In the Gmail “Send an email” action, you can set the notification recipients (To, Cc, and Bcc) as needed. You can also specify a team mailing list instead of individual addresses
■Notes
- Connect both Box and Gmail to Yoom.
