Give a shared Chatfai scenario its own Slack space

Move a scenario that needs collaboration into a dedicated channel your team can return to.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create channel

Initiates a public or private channel-based conversation

Why this helps

Scenario planning can become hard to follow when its discussion is scattered across unrelated Slack channels.

  • Keep a scenario discussion in one dedicated space.
  • Make collaboration easier to resume.
  • Reduce context switching between unrelated threads.

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 scenario discussions.
  • 3Describe when a supplied scenario warrants a channel and how to name it; provide any required team details in the request.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Send one real scenario request and confirm the channel was created.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a channel for every chat?

The instruction should limit channel creation to scenarios that meet your stated criteria. A webhook request starts each run.

What information may be needed?

Provide a suitable channel name and any team details required by the Slack action in the request or instruction.
