Acknowledge approvals where the conversation happened
When an approval update arrives from Bubble, add a reaction to the referenced Slack message so the conversation reflects the decision.
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
Approval decisions in one system do not automatically signal progress in the Slack thread where people are coordinating.
- Marks the relevant Slack message as acknowledged.
- Keeps the signal near the original conversation.
- Avoids a separate manual reaction step.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bubble and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation for approval acknowledgements.
- 3Tell Notis to add the supplied emoji reaction to the Slack message identified in the Bubble webhook data.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real approval and a message reference the connected Slack account can access.
Questions about this workflow
What message details are required?
The reaction action needs a Slack channel and message timestamp, plus an emoji. Include them in the webhook data.
Can it create a message if none exists?
No. This workflow reacts to an existing message referenced by the supplied Slack details.
