Make a review state visible at a glance by adding a reaction to the related Slack message.
Trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
Review status can be hard to spot when a document result and its Slack discussion are easy to confuse.
- Make matching items easier to scan in a busy conversation.
- Use a lightweight status marker instead of another message.
- Keep the marker attached to the relevant Slack message.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Algodocs and Slack once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation and describe the review-ready condition and reaction outcome.
- 3Choose a webhook trigger for the Algodocs result.
- 4Choose where Notis run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real result and its related Slack message.
Questions about this workflow
Does Algodocs provide the Slack message timestamp?
Not necessarily. The reaction action requires a channel and message timestamp, so provide these in the webhook payload or another available context.
Can the reaction be removed later?
This action adds a reaction only. It does not remove or retrieve reactions.
