Star a Slack message tied to a Blooio follow up

Keep the most important follow ups one click away.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add a star to an item

Stars a channel, file, file comment, or a specific message in slack.

Why this helps

Critical context disappears in busy channels before the follow up is complete.

  • Keep key context discoverable
  • Reduce repeated searching
  • Support reliable follow through

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Blooio and Slack in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Follow up message star.
  • 3Tell Notis to star the specified Slack message when the Blooio payload marks the related follow up as important.
  • 4Pick the notis_webhook trigger and include the Slack channel and message timestamp in the request.
  • 5Choose a Slack report channel, then test with one important follow up.
