Make review follow-up easy to spot

Turn a review status update into a visible signal on the relevant Slack message, so the team can spot the handoff quickly.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add reaction to message

Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.

Why this helps

Review coordination messages can disappear in busy channels before the next person notices them.

  • Make a review handoff visible in the existing conversation.
  • Avoid posting another status message when a reaction is enough.
  • Use an existing Slack message timestamp and channel supplied to the automation.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Breathe HR and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Describe when Notis should react to a Slack message after a review update arrives.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real review update and a Slack message that can be identified by the automation.

Questions about this workflow

Will this create a Slack message?

No. It adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message, using its channel and timestamp.

Can the workflow find a Slack message without its identifying details?

The action needs an existing message identified by channel and timestamp. Provide those details in the webhook or otherwise make them available to Notis.
