Turn Canny feedback into a weekly Slack digest

Get the important feedback themes in one Slack message, without manually revisiting every Canny post.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Post message to channel

Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.

Why this helps

Feedback is scattered across Canny posts, making it easy to miss patterns or spend too much time catching up.

  • Spot repeated requests without rereading every post.
  • Give the team a predictable place to review feedback.
  • Keep the digest concise and link it to source posts when available.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canny and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to summarize recent Canny feedback into recurring themes and post the digest to Slack.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule, choose where run reports go, and test with one real example.

Questions about this workflow

Does this run when new Canny feedback arrives?

This setup uses a schedule because Canny has no listed trigger events. Notis reviews feedback when the scheduled run starts.

Can the digest include links to Canny posts?

Ask Notis to include source links when the feedback returned by Canny provides them.
