Give trial accounts a timely review
Have Notis turn an incoming trial milestone into a Slack reminder with the account context supplied by Billsby.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
Trial milestones are easy to miss when they are spread across billing and product work.
- Bring trial follow-up into Slack
- Keep the account context close to the next step
- Make review timing easier to manage
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Billsby and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to create a Slack reminder when an incoming Billsby webhook identifies a trial milestone, using the supplied account and timing details.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real trial milestone example.
Questions about this workflow
Which trial milestone should start this?
Use the Billsby webhook that you have configured to notify Notis of the trial milestone you want to review.
Can Notis infer a trial end date if it is missing?
No. Timing details need to be present in the webhook request for the reminder to use them.
