  • Reduce repeated status questions

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bigmailer and Slack in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Campaign milestone star.
  • 3Tell Notis to review incoming Bigmailer milestone data and star the supplied Slack message when it is marked important.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a Slack report channel and test with one milestone payload containing a channel and message timestamp.

Questions about this workflow

What identifies the Slack message?

The payload or instruction must provide the Slack channel and message timestamp.

Can it star every campaign message?

It can, but a milestone rule keeps stars useful and focused.
