How to connect Box and Circle
Create a New Scenario to Connect Box and Circle
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Box, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Box or Circle will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Box or Circle, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Box Node
Select the Box node from the app selection panel on the right.

- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Box, Circle, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Box and Circle integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Box and Circle (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
