Why this helps
A new submission may need acknowledgment or next-step guidance, but composing reusable messages competes with other work.
- Prepare consistent follow-up language from submission context.
- Keep template content aligned with the assignment.
- Avoid starting each acknowledgment from a blank page.

- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3Describe in one instruction the template content to create or update when a submission arrives.

- 5Test with one real submission and review the resulting template.

What should the instruction include?
