Keep approved Bitly resources easy to find
After an approval window, star the Slack message that announces the resource so it stays easy to find without reposting it.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Add a star to an item
Stars a channel, file, file comment, or a specific message in slack.
Why this helps
Approved resources get buried in chat before the people who need them have a chance to save the message.
- Keep the original approval announcement easy to locate.
- Avoid duplicating the resource post.
- Use a review window before saving the message.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bitly and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: find the specified approval announcement in the supplied Slack conversation and star its message.
- 4Choose a Notis schedule and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one approved resource announcement in Slack.
Questions about this workflow
Does this approve the resource?
No. It only stars a Slack item. The approval decision must be made by your existing process.
What does the workflow search?
Use a specific accessible Slack conversation and time window to locate the intended approval announcement.
Can this star a message that has not been approved?
Configure the instruction and timing so it targets only an announcement after the approval decision has been made.
