Notis

Invite the right responders to incident channels

Bring the people who can help into the room without manual searching.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Invite users to a Slack channel

Invites users to an existing slack channel using their valid slack user ids.

Why this helps

Response slows down when someone has to find and invite every specialist by hand.

  • Speed up escalation
  • Reduce missed specialists
  • Keep response membership intentional

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Better Stack and Slack in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Incident Responder Invite.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the relevant Slack channel and invite responders named by the incident context.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and report channel.
  • 5Test it with one incident and approved responder list.

Questions about this workflow

They must be present in the Better Stack payload or supplied in your instruction.
