Start a Slack conversation for new requests
Route important signing work into a clear place for fast coordination.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create a channel-based conversation
Creates a new public or private slack channel with a unique name; the channel can be org-wide, or team-specific if `team id` is given (required if `org wide` is false or not provided).
Why this helps
New requests can be buried in inboxes before the right people see them.
- Speed up assignment
- Reduce inbox scanning
- Keep request context together
