Bring stale records back into view

Give aging work a regular review point and make the next step visible to the team.

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

Records that have not changed can quietly become forgotten work or outdated information.

  • Focus attention on records that may need a decision.
  • Make review findings visible in Slack.
  • Use an explicit age threshold in your instruction.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ApptiveGrid and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe what qualifies as stale and what to summarize.
  • 3Choose a recurring schedule as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports go and specify a Slack destination in your instruction.
  • 5Test with one real example of stale record data available to Notis.

Questions about this workflow

Can this calculate how long records have been unchanged?

Only if the run has access to the relevant dates. Ensure the data available to Notis includes them and specify the age threshold.

Will the schedule query ApptiveGrid?

No ApptiveGrid trigger event is provided here. The workflow can only analyze record data made available to Notis.
