Get the conditions that matter before the day gets moving. Notis checks Ambient Weather on your schedule and posts a concise briefing in Slack.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Post message to channel
Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.
Why this helps
Checking the forecast in one app and then remembering to update the team adds another context switch to an already busy morning.
- See current conditions in the channel where the team already coordinates.
- Reduce the daily effort of checking and relaying weather.
- Keep the update short and focused on practical conditions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ambient Weather and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome: check current Ambient Weather conditions and post a concise morning briefing to Slack.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm the message is useful.
Questions about this workflow
Can the briefing include historical trends?
Yes, if the connected Ambient Weather source provides relevant historical data. Say which trend matters in the automation instruction.
Can I choose when it runs?
Yes. Pick a recurring schedule when setting the trigger.
Do I need to configure message fields?
No. Describe the desired briefing in plain language; Notis is prompt-based.
