Acknowledge Breeze task completion with a Slack reaction

Mark a completed task with a lightweight reaction on the relevant Slack message.

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

Small but meaningful completions can go unacknowledged when updates are spread between Breeze and Slack.

  • Acknowledge finished work without another full message.
  • Keep the recognition attached to relevant Slack context.
  • Make completion visible to the conversation.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Breeze and Slack once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or by telling Notis what you want.
  • 3Ask Notis to add a chosen reaction to a specified Slack message when a Breeze task is complete.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real completed task and message reference.

Questions about this workflow
