Notis

Make Affinity contact reviews visible in Slack

Keep relationship reviews easy to spot by marking the relevant Slack conversation when the check is done.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

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

Relationship reviews can be repeated or overlooked when their completion is not visible in the place the team coordinates.

  • Show that a contact review was completed in the related Slack message.
  • Help teammates avoid duplicating a recent review.
  • Keep attention on the contact context and conversation in one place.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and Slack once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language.
  • 3Ask Notis to review the selected Affinity contact records and react to each supplied Slack message only after the review is complete.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one contact and confirm the intended message receives the reaction.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow post new contact information to Slack?

No. It adds a reaction to an existing Slack message after a review.

What is needed to mark a message?

The Slack channel and timestamp for the existing message, plus the reaction to use.

Can it infer that a review is complete from missing information?

No. The instruction should define completion clearly, and Notis should not treat missing data as proof of completion.
