Make market milestones easy to spot in Slack
Define a meaningful milestone and have Notis mark its existing Slack update after checking Alpha Vantage data.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Add reaction to message

Why this helps
Milestones can pass without notice when nobody has time to recheck the data and revisit the conversation.
- Check a milestone on a schedule.
- Highlight a related Slack message with a reaction.
- Keep the decision rule explicit and repeatable.

- 1Connect Alpha Vantage and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3State the data, milestone condition, and Slack message to react to in one instruction.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule as the trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real example and verify the action against your stated condition.
