Follow up on scripture questions without losing the thread

Turn a scripture question into a reminder to return to it, with the passage lookup and follow-up kept in one workflow.

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 question about a passage can be left unresolved when the original conversation gets buried.

  • Create a clear reminder to revisit a scripture question.
  • Look up the passage as part of the follow-up context.
  • Capture follow-up intent when the question is raised.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Api bible and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
  • 3Describe how the webhook's scripture question should be looked up and converted into a Slack reminder.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real question and an appropriate reminder time.

Questions about this workflow

What information should the webhook include?

Include the scripture question or passage reference and the reminder timing and text needed for the Slack reminder.

Does Api bible create the Slack reminder?

No. Api bible is used to look up scripture. The Slack reminder action creates the reminder.
