Remind the team about open incidents
Make unresolved reliability work visible before it becomes forgotten work.
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
Open incidents quietly age while everyone assumes someone else is handling them.
- Surface aging incidents
- Reduce ownership ambiguity
- Create a lightweight follow-up habit
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Better Stack and Slack in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Open Incident Check.
- 3Tell Notis to find unresolved incidents and create a Slack reminder only when one needs attention.
- 4Pick a recurring Notis cron schedule and report channel.
- 5Test it against the current open incident list.
Questions about this workflow
Will it create a reminder every time?
Ask Notis to create one only when an incident remains unresolved or crosses your chosen age.
Can I define an age threshold?
Yes. Include the threshold in the plain language instruction.
