Notis

Open a Slack channel for major Borneo incidents

Give serious privacy incidents a dedicated room for decisions and updates.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create channel

Initiates a public or private channel-based conversation

Why this helps

Major incidents become hard to coordinate inside general channels.

  • Create a clear response home
  • Reduce cross channel noise
  • Improve incident coordination

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Borneo and Slack in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Major Incident Channel.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a private Slack channel named from the Borneo incident and summarize the opening context.
  • 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one major incident payload.

Questions about this workflow

Can the channel be private?

Yes. Ask Notis to create a private channel when the incident requires restricted access.

Will Notis invite responders?

Channel creation alone does not invite users; use the incident payload to decide whether a later invite step is needed.
