Remind owners about inactive requests
Recover stalled signing work before it becomes an invisible backlog.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
Requests can remain untouched because inactivity is harder to notice than an explicit failure.
- Recover stalled work
- Make ownership visible
- Reduce aging backlog

- 1Connect Boloforms and Slack in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation instructing Notis to find inactive requests and create owner reminders.
