Make the next onboarding step easier to remember
Turn a member event into a Slack reminder that keeps the next human follow-up visible.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
A welcome can happen quickly, but the next onboarding step is easy to forget amid founder priorities.
- Keep a follow-up visible in Slack.
- Use timing supplied in the event or instruction.
- Reduce reliance on memory for the next onboarding touchpoint.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Brilliant Directories and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis the outcome you want from any channel.
- 3Ask Notis to create a reminder using the follow-up timing and member context provided.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real member example and a valid reminder time.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis decide when a follow-up should happen?
Notis needs the timing supplied in the webhook request or your instruction. It should not assume an onboarding schedule that was not provided.
Where does the reminder appear?
Slack creates the reminder according to its reminder action. Choose an appropriate user or channel context in the automation prompt.
