Keep Carbone report reviews from slipping
When a report is ready, create a Slack reminder so the next review step has a clear nudge.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
A finished report can wait unnoticed when its review depends on someone remembering to come back to it.
- Put the review follow-up in Slack.
- Tie the reminder to a specific report and deadline.
- Reduce mental tracking of pending reviews.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Carbone and Slack once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation that creates a Slack reminder for the report review, using the owner and reminder time supplied with the request.
- 3Choose the Notis webhook trigger.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one report and a real review time.
Questions about this workflow
Where does Slack send the reminder?
Slack reminders are created for the authenticated Slack user. Confirm that this is the intended reminder owner.
Can the reminder time be set for each report?
Yes. Include the intended reminder time in the webhook request; Slack accepts a timestamp, seconds from now, or natural language time.
