Check reviewer availability
Start campaign reviews when the people you need are reachable.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Retrieve user presence
Retrieves a slack user's current real-time presence (e.g., 'active', 'away') to determine their availability, noting this action does not provide historical data or status reasons.
Why this helps
Review workflows waste time when key people are away and nobody notices until the meeting begins.
- Reduce avoidable waiting
- Improve review timing
- Make coordination more predictable
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Benchmark email and Slack in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Reviewer availability check.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the current Slack presence for the supplied reviewers and report who is available.
- 4Choose notis_cron and set the schedule before the review.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one reviewer list.
Questions about this workflow
Is presence historical?
No. Slack presence reports the current real-time state only.
Can this reschedule a review?
This workflow reports availability. Any rescheduling decision must be described separately and requires an available scheduling action.
