Turn a task into a Slack reminder
Send a task and its deadline to a Notis webhook. AI can make the reminder clear, then Slack can bring it back at the right time.
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 task captured in one place may never make it onto the reminder list that you actually check.
- Capture a task through an HTTP request
- Create a concise reminder from the submitted context
- Avoid inventing a reminder time when the deadline is unclear
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ai ml api and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe how to phrase submitted tasks as reminders.
- 3Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test it with one real task that includes an explicit date or time.
Questions about this workflow
What should the webhook request include?
Include the task text and a clear date or time for the reminder. The workflow needs timing information to create a useful Slack reminder.
What happens if the task has no deadline?
Tell the automation to avoid guessing and report that the timing is missing. Add a clear time before asking it to create the reminder.
