Make Bubble files discoverable from Slack
When Bubble provides a file reference, add it to Slack as a remote file so teammates can discover and share it there.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add a remote file
Adds a reference to an external file (e.g., google drive, dropbox) to slack for discovery and sharing, requiring a unique `external id` and an `external url` accessible by slack.
Why this helps
Useful files stored outside Slack can be hard for teammates to discover in the conversations where they need them.
- Makes an external file reference available for Slack discovery.
- Keeps file sharing connected to Bubble activity.
- Reduces repeated requests for links.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bubble and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation for adding Bubble file references.
- 3Tell Notis to add each supplied file reference to Slack using its unique external ID and URL.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real file whose URL is accessible to Slack.
