Notis

Mark compliance milestones where your team talks

Give a reported compliance milestone a visible signal in Slack, without asking someone to find and react to the message manually.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add reaction to message

Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.

Why this helps

Milestone updates can be hard to distinguish from routine chatter, leaving teams unsure whether progress has been recognized.

  • Make milestone messages easier to recognize in a busy channel.
  • Reduce manual steps between reporting progress and acknowledging it.
  • Keep the signal attached to the related Slack message.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 21risk and Slack in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis for reported compliance milestones.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to identify the related Slack message and add the chosen reaction when milestone details are available.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with one real milestone and confirm the intended Slack message receives the reaction.

Questions about this workflow

What starts the automation?

A Notis webhook starts it. Since 21risk has no listed trigger events, an external request must call the webhook when the milestone is reported.

Does this action create a Slack message?

No. It adds a reaction to an existing message using its channel and timestamp. The instruction needs enough context to identify that message.

What if there is no matching Slack message?

The reaction action requires an existing message. Have the instruction report that no match was found, or provide the message reference with the webhook input.
