Bring Botpress conversation context into Slack discussions
Connect a bot issue with the Slack conversation around it, so the team can make decisions with shared context.
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
Teams can discuss a bot issue in Slack without checking whether the underlying Botpress conversation has more useful context.
- Keep related discussion easier to review.
- Give teammates a concise view of available thread context.
- Help connect bot conversations with team decisions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Botpress and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome: use the supplied Botpress issue context to summarize replies in its related Slack thread.
- 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Botpress issue and a Slack parent message timestamp.
Questions about this workflow
Does this action create a Slack thread?
No. The selected Slack action retrieves replies to a specified parent message. Supply an existing conversation channel and parent message timestamp.
How does Notis know which Slack discussion is related?
The webhook request or your instruction must provide enough context to identify the related Slack conversation. Notis does not invent that relationship.
