Flag sources that deserve team review
Help a source that matters stand out in the Slack conversation where your team can assess it together.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
A potentially useful source can be buried in a research thread before the right person sees it.
- Call attention to a source that meets your criteria.
- Keep review within the existing conversation.
- Let teammates check the original source before acting.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Autom and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the search, source review criteria, and target Slack message.
- 3Pick a webhook trigger and have the caller start the check when needed.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real source and confirm the correct Slack message is identified.
Questions about this workflow
Does this post the source link?
This action adds a reaction to an existing message. The link should already be in that message, or use a message-posting action to share it.
Can a reaction say why the source matters?
No. Describe the reaction as a visual marker only. Include the reasoning in a separate Slack message if it needs to be communicated.
