Notis

Resolve Bika contacts to Slack users

Turn contact data into reliable Slack identities before outreach or coordination.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Lookup users by email

Retrieves the slack user object for an active user by their registered email address; fails with 'users not found' if the email is unregistered or the user is inactive.

Why this helps

Email addresses in planning records do not always reveal the correct Slack user or account status.

  • Reduce identity mistakes
  • Prepare accurate handoffs
  • Spot inactive or missing accounts

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bika.ai and Slack in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation and define which Bika contact records need Slack resolution.
  • 3Tell Notis to look up each active Slack user by registered email and report matches or failures.
  • 4Choose notis_cron, select a report channel, and test with one real contact set.

Questions about this workflow

What happens for an unregistered email?

Slack reports that no active user was found, and Notis includes that result in the report.

Can this invite users?

No. It resolves identities only; inviting users requires a separate channel invitation workflow.
