Create Slack reminders for Aryn review deadlines
Give pending reviews a timely nudge before their due date slips by.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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 review deadline can be easy to miss when it is stored with document context instead of in a daily work reminder.
- Bring upcoming review deadlines into Slack.
- Reduce manual scanning of document queues.
- Keep follow-up tied to the relevant review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Aryn and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to find pending reviews with upcoming deadlines and create a Slack reminder using the available reminder text and time.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one pending review that has a real deadline.
Questions about this workflow
How does it know a deadline is upcoming?
Define the look-ahead window in the instruction and ensure Aryn data includes the due time.
Can it remind me when a deadline is missing?
The Slack reminder needs a time. The instruction should skip records without one and report the missing deadline.
Could scheduled runs create duplicates?
Yes, if the same review is found repeatedly. Include an idempotency approach in the instruction or choose a cadence and window that avoids repeated reminders.
