Keep deadlines from disappearing into email
When a new message includes a date that matters, share the date and what it applies to in a Discord channel.
Trigger
New Email Received
Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox
Action
Post message to channel
Sends a message to a specified discord channel (text, embeds, stickers, components, attachments); requires `send messages` permission and one of `content`, `embeds`, `sticker ids`, or `attachments`.
Why this helps
A deadline mentioned once in an email is easy to miss when the inbox gets busy.
- Make dates mentioned in email visible to the team.
- Pair each date with the request or deliverable it refers to.
- Reduce manual copying of deadline details.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agent mail and Discordbot once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to post new emails that contain a deadline, including the stated date, what it applies to, and any requested action.
- 4Choose New Email Received as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real email containing a deadline and review the post.
Questions about this workflow
Will this create a calendar event?
No. This workflow posts the deadline details to Discord; it does not create calendar events.
What happens when an email has no clear date?
Instruct Notis to post only deadlines explicitly stated in the message and skip unclear dates.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Agent mail to Discordbot. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Agent mail triggers
Discordbot actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add recipient to group channel
Adds a user to a discord group direct message (dm) channel.
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.
