When a file is added to Box, retrieve the order shipping address from Amazon Seller Central and notify Slack

■Overview

Do you manage order-related documents in Box for your Amazon sales operations, but still handle shipping instructions and information sharing manually? This workflow automates the entire process—from storing a file in Box to checking order details and notifying the relevant team members. By connecting Amazon sales with file management in Box, you can streamline tasks that were previously handled manually and create a smoother shipping process.

■Recommended for

• Those who use Amazon Seller Central and Box to manage e-commerce orders and shipping
• Those who find manually checking and sharing order information time-consuming and want to automate these tasks
• Those who want to reduce human errors such as missed checks and sharing mistakes during order processing

■Benefits of using this template

• When a file is stored in Box, the workflow automatically retrieves the order information and sends a notification, reducing the time spent manually checking and sharing information.
• Because the system processes orders automatically, it helps prevent human errors caused by manual work, such as misreading order numbers or miscommunicating information.

■Workflow

1. First, connect Box, Amazon Seller Central, and Slack to Yoom.
2. Next, select Box as the trigger, set the action to “When a file is uploaded to a folder,” and specify the target folder.
3. Under Operations, set the Box “Download a file” action to retrieve the uploaded file.
4. Then, set the AI feature’s “Extract text with OCR” action to extract text information, such as the order number, from the downloaded file.
5. Next, set Amazon Seller Central’s “Get the shipping address for an order” action to retrieve the shipping information based on the order number extracted by OCR.
6. Finally, use Slack’s “Send a message to a channel” action to automatically notify the relevant team members of the shipping information and other details.

■Customization options

• With the AI OCR feature, you can freely specify the text fields to extract, such as the order number or customer name, based on the file being processed.
• For Slack notifications, you can freely specify the destination channel. You can also insert dynamic information retrieved in previous steps—such as order details and shipping addresses—as variables in the message.

※“Trigger”: An action that starts the workflow. “Operation”: An action that processes data within the workflow after the trigger starts.

■Notes

• Connect each of Box, Amazon Seller Central, and Slack to Yoom.
• The AI operations for OCR and speech-to-text are available only on the Team and Success plans. Please note that operations in workflows configured with the Free or Mini plan will result in an error.
• Paid plans, including the Team and Success plans, come with a two-week free trial. During the free trial, you can use apps and AI features (operations) that are otherwise subject to plan restrictions.
• Please note that OCR may not be able to read data containing more than 6,500 characters or text that is too small.
