Create Discord commands for 7shifts operations
Give recurring operational requests a simple entry point inside Discord.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create application command objects
Creates a new global discord application command, accessible across guilds and in dms (if `dm permission` is true), noting global commands can take up to an hour to propagate and have registration limits; for guild-specific commands, use a different action.
Why this helps
Teams repeat the same operational request instructions in chat.
- Standardize repeatable requests
- Reduce instruction overhead
- Make workflows easier to discover
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 7shifts and Discordbot in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation describing the approved repeatable request and command behavior.
- 3Tell Notis to create one global application command only after the request is approved.
- 4Choose a notis_webhook trigger for the approval update.
- 5Choose a Discord report channel and test with one real command proposal.

Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Update guild member information
Adds a user (who is not already a member) to a guild using their `access token` (which must have `guilds.join` scope), optionally setting nickname, roles, mute/deaf status, or flags.
Assign role to guild member
Assigns a role to a guild member, provided the bot has 'manage roles' permission in the guild and the role to be assigned is hierarchically lower than the bot's highest role.
Add reaction to message
Adds an emoji reaction from the authenticated user/bot to a specific message in a discord channel; does not return information about existing reactions.
Add or update thread member
Adds a user to a specific, unarchived thread; the user must have access to the thread's parent channel, and for private threads, the bot must already be a member.
Modify guild ban settings
Permanently bans a user from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages (specify deletion period in seconds or days, not both).
Bulk ban users in guild with message deletion option
Bans up to 200 users from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages; the bot must have 'ban members' permission in the guild, and this action is irreversible.
Bulk delete messages in channel
Atomically bulk deletes messages in a discord channel for moderation or maintenance; deletion may not be instantaneous and messages are unrecoverable.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
