Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Delete scheduled chat message

  • Reduce last-minute confusion
  • Keep scheduled communication accurate

  • 2Create an automation named Remove stale campaign message.
  • 3Tell Notis to delete the supplied pending Slack scheduled message when the campaign payload marks it obsolete.
  • 4Choose notis_webhook and include the scheduled message id.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one changed campaign plan.

Questions about this workflow
