Highlight competitor price movements in Slack
Notis checks competitor ASIN prices on a recurring schedule and reacts to the related Slack message when your price rule is met.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Add reaction to message
Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.
Why this helps
Competitor pricing changes can affect a decision quickly, yet manual checks compete with other work.
- Surface competitor pricing signals where the team discusses them.
- Use a clear condition to focus attention on meaningful changes.
- Keep the signal attached to existing decision context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asin data api and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, list competitor ASINs, the price rule, and the Slack message to react to.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real product and verify the target message receives the reaction.
Questions about this workflow
Can this detect a price change from the previous check?
Only if a previous value or baseline is available. Specify the comparison data needed for your rule.
Does it find competitor ASINs for me?
Provide the competitor ASINs to monitor. The source description supports lookups by ASIN.
