Find Android text conversations that still need a next step
Use a scheduled review to bring likely SMS follow-ups into Slack, so a reply or promised action does not depend on remembering to revisit your phone.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Fetch conversation history
Fetches a chronological list of messages and events from a specified slack conversation, accessible by the authenticated user/bot, with options for pagination and time range filtering.
Why this helps
A text that needs a reply can slip out of view after the day gets busy, especially when there is no clear reminder to return to the conversation.
- Create a predictable review point for recent text conversations.
- See candidate follow-ups in Slack without switching to the phone inbox.
- Summarize possible next steps for a quick human review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Android Texter and Slack once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation from any channel or in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Describe the outcome: review the recent SMS data Android Texter makes available, identify conversations that appear to need a reply or next step, and summarize them in Slack for review.
- 4Choose a recurring Notis schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm the available message history covers the review period.
Questions about this workflow
Can this find messages older than the data Android Texter exposes?
No. The review can only use message data the connected source makes available when it runs.
Will Notis reply to the sender?
No. This workflow posts a review summary to Slack for you to decide what to do.
Can the summary know whether I already replied by another channel?
Only if that context is available in the data supplied to the automation. Otherwise, treat the listed follow-ups as candidates to check.
