Retrieve Slack thread context for a Blooio issue
Bring the whole decision trail into view before you act on a Blooio issue.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Retrieve conversation replies
Retrieves replies to a specific parent message in a slack conversation, using the channel id and the parent message's timestamp (`ts`).
Why this helps
Important decisions are often hidden inside replies rather than the parent Slack message.
- Recover hidden decisions
- Reduce repeated investigation
- Improve issue handoffs
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Blooio and Slack in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Issue thread context.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve replies for the supplied Slack parent message and summarize decisions, owners, and unresolved questions related to the Blooio issue.
- 4Pick the notis_webhook trigger and include the Slack channel and parent timestamp in the request.
- 5Choose a Slack report channel, then test with one real issue.
Questions about this workflow
Does it retrieve the parent message too?
