Turn incomplete contact checks into Slack reminders

Keep an unchecked contact from disappearing into a list by turning the verification result into a reminder.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create a reminder

Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').

Why this helps

A contact with missing or inconclusive verification can sit untouched when there is no clear follow-up prompt.

  • Surface contacts that still need a manual check.
  • Create a specific reminder from the verification outcome.
  • Keep follow-up visible in Slack.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Slack reminder only when the webhook's Abstract result says a contact needs further verification.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real result that needs follow-up.

Questions about this workflow

Will every verification result create a reminder?

The instruction can limit reminders to results that indicate more checking is needed. Include that outcome in the webhook request.

Can Notis determine the reminder date?

Specify the timing in your instruction or include a due time in the request. Slack reminders accept a specified time.
