Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Box, Open Weather, 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 Open Weather integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Box and Open Weather (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Box and Open Weather
Box + Open Weather + Slack: When a new file is added to a specific folder in Box, the current weather conditions are retrieved from Open Weather. If the weather conditions (e.g., humidity, temperature) exceed a defined threshold, a message is sent to a Slack channel to alert the team about potential damage to stored documents.
Open Weather + Google Sheets + Box: Fetch current weather data from Open Weather on a scheduled basis. Log the temperature data in a Google Sheet. Save the Google Sheet containing the weather data to a designated folder in Box for long-term analysis and archival.
