Star Slack messages about important Aryn documents
Keep the key Slack conversation close when an Aryn document matters beyond today.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Add a star to an item
Stars a channel, file, file comment, or a specific message in slack.
Why this helps
Important document discussions can disappear into busy channels, making them hard to find when decisions resume.
- Make important document discussions easier to retrieve.
- Reduce repeated searching through busy channels.
- Keep a lightweight marker on the original conversation.
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 identify important Aryn document discussions and star the corresponding Slack item when its channel and timestamp are known.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real document discussion and verify the correct Slack item is starred.
Questions about this workflow
What Slack item can be starred?
The action supports starring a channel, file, file comment, or specific message. The workflow should identify the item using data available to it.
Does Aryn provide Slack message identifiers?
The listed Aryn description does not promise Slack identifiers. Provide channel and timestamp context in the request or source data for a specific message.
Can it star every document discussion?
Set the instruction to star only discussions that meet your importance criteria to avoid cluttering starred items.
