Give form follow-up a visible Slack signal
Let Notis assess the submission details you provide and mark the team's existing Slack discussion when someone should follow up.
Trigger

Why this helps

- Surface submissions that meet your follow-up criteria.
- Mark the related Slack message with a consistent reaction.
- Keep the signal attached to an existing discussion.

- 5Test with one real submission and its related Slack message reference.
