Clear completed email review DMs
When an email review is finished, Notis can close the specified Slack direct message from your sidebar. The conversation history remains available in Slack.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Close conversation channel
Closes a slack direct message (dm) or multi-person direct message (mpdm) channel, removing it from the user's sidebar without deleting history; this action affects only the calling user's view.
Why this helps
Completed review conversations can keep competing for attention after the check and follow-up are done.
- Clear completed direct messages from your sidebar.
- Keep the original Slack conversation history.
- Use Bouncer's result as the signal to finish the review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bouncer and Slack once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation from any channel or Automations, New Automation in the portal.
- 3In one instruction, describe the addresses to check and which specified Slack DM to close after the review is complete.
- 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real check and a DM you are comfortable closing from your view.
Questions about this workflow
Does closing a DM delete its history?
No. This action closes the DM from the calling user's sidebar and retains history.
Can this close a channel?
The listed action closes a direct message or multi-person direct message conversation. It is not a channel-archive action.
Will it close the DM if the check still needs follow-up?
Tell Notis to close it only after the review is complete. Specify what completion means in your instruction.
