Find related Slack discussion for a Bugherd issue

Bring existing team discussion into an issue review so investigation starts with more context.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Fetch conversation history

Fetches a chronological list of messages and events from a specified slack conversation, accessible by the authenticated user/bot, with options for pagination and time range filtering.

Why this helps

Bug reports often arrive without the background scattered across team conversations.

  • Reduce time spent searching Slack by hand.
  • Give reviewers relevant conversation history to assess.
  • Keep issue investigation grounded in accessible channel messages.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bugherd and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis from any channel or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to use a Bugherd issue's supplied context to fetch relevant Slack conversation history.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real issue and verify that the retrieved conversation is relevant.

Questions about this workflow

Does this search every Slack channel automatically?

The listed Slack action fetches history for a specified conversation. Provide the channel context in the webhook request or automation instruction.

Can Notis retrieve conversations it cannot access?

No. Slack access is limited to conversations available to the connected account or bot.
