Questions about this workflow
Does it post a reply in Canvas?
No. It prepares a report for the chosen channel; the listed actions do not post discussion replies.
What if the message names ambiguous teams?
Ask Notis to flag the ambiguity and request clarification rather than selecting a team by guess.
