Make Basecamp deadlines harder to miss
Ask Notis to check Basecamp on a recurring schedule and turn upcoming deadlines into Slack reminders with clear next steps.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
Important Basecamp dates are easy to overlook when they live outside the place you check for daily prompts.
- Bring upcoming deadlines into a familiar reminder flow
- Reduce repeated manual checking
- Keep the reminder focused on the next action

- 1Connect Basecamp and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis: Review Basecamp for deadlines in the coming period and create a Slack reminder for each actionable follow-up, including its due date and context.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real deadline example.
