Check availability before coordinating live scenario feedback
See a reviewer's current Slack presence before deciding how to coordinate a live session.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Retrieve user presence
Retrieves a slack user's current real-time presence (e.g., 'active', 'away') to determine their availability, noting this action does not provide historical data or status reasons.
Why this helps
Coordinating a live review without checking presence can lead to avoidable back-and-forth.
- Check current presence before coordinating.
- Reduce unnecessary live-session pings.
- Make a better-informed timing decision.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Chatfai and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for live reviewer coordination.
- 3Describe which known Slack reviewer to check and how their current presence should inform the coordination decision.
- 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real session request with an accessible Slack user reference and review the result.
Questions about this workflow
Does presence show a person's schedule?
No. It reports current real-time presence such as active or away, not a calendar or historical availability.
Can Notis identify the reviewer from a scenario alone?
Only if the needed user identity is available in connected context or supplied in the webhook request.
