Notis

React to failed transaction alerts

Make failed transactions stand out immediately in the channel where your team investigates them.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add reaction to message

Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.

Why this helps

Important failure messages blend into busy Slack channels and take longer to triage.

  • Improve visual triage
  • Reduce missed failures
  • Create a consistent incident signal

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Blocknative and Slack in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Failed Transaction Marker.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the matching Slack message and add your chosen reaction when a transaction fails.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and Slack report channel.
  • 5Test with one real failed transaction.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a new message?
