See upcoming employee starts in Slack
A regular digest gives you one place to check which new hires are approaching their first day.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Post message to channel
Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.
Why this helps
Upcoming start dates are easy to miss when they live in HR records and are not part of a regular planning habit.
- Surface upcoming starts without opening multiple records.
- Create a predictable checkpoint for onboarding preparation.
- Keep the digest limited to relevant, available BambooHR details.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect BambooHR and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to find upcoming starts within a time window you specify and summarize them in Slack.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and adjust the time window in your instruction if needed.
Questions about this workflow
Can it decide which start dates count as upcoming?
Tell Notis the time window you want in the instruction. BambooHR does not provide a trigger event for each start date.
