Make an Amazon product brief discoverable in Slack
Send an ASIN lookup request to a Notis webhook, then let Notis gather product details and add an accessible brief reference to Slack for discovery and sharing.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add a remote file
Adds a reference to an external file (e.g., google drive, dropbox) to slack for discovery and sharing, requiring a unique `external id` and an `external url` accessible by slack.
Why this helps
Product research and its supporting brief can live in separate tools, forcing teammates to hunt for context.
- Start product research from an HTTP request.
- Gather product details in natural language through the source app.
- Make an externally hosted brief reference discoverable in Slack.
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, describe the ASIN lookup and the externally hosted brief to add to Slack.
- 4Choose a webhook as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request and verify Slack can access the external URL.
Questions about this workflow
Does this action upload the brief to Slack?
No. It adds a reference to an external file. The external ID must be unique and the URL must be accessible by Slack.
What starts this automation?
An HTTP request to its Notis webhook starts the automation. Include the ASIN and any lookup context in the request or instruction.
