Notis

Keep Dart tasks current with Ably progress notes

Bring meaningful progress from channel conversations into the task discussion on a cadence that suits your team.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Add Task Comment

Tool to create a new comment on a DART task. Use when you need to add feedback, notes, or discussion to a specific task. Supports markdown formatting and threaded replies via parentId.

Why this helps

Task context grows stale when progress is shared in conversation but never attached to the work.

  • Keep task discussions current with reported progress.
  • Reduce the effort of revisiting channel history.
  • Make blockers and completed steps visible alongside the work.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Dart once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to review accessible Ably updates and add concise progress comments only to clearly matching Dart tasks.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real progress update and its matching Dart task.

Questions about this workflow

What happens to updates that cannot be matched?

Instruct Notis to include them in the run report for review rather than commenting on a guessed task.

Will it repeat the same progress note every run?

Tell Notis to check existing task comments for the same update before adding a new one.
