Decide what to do with aging Checkvist work

Bring older open tasks back for a decision: continue, reassign, or close.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Post message to channel

Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.

Why this helps

Old tasks can accumulate in lists without anyone deciding whether they still matter.

  • Resurface older open work for a clear decision.
  • Include available ownership and due date context.
  • Reduce task list clutter and ambiguity.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Checkvist and Slack once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to identify older open Checkvist tasks using available date information and post a Slack review with assignees, due dates, and notes.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real older task and review the age rule.

Questions about this workflow

Does Checkvist provide task creation dates?

The source description does not specify creation dates. This workflow should use any available date information or a date criterion you supply.

Can Notis decide whether to close a task?

The listed target actions are Slack actions. This workflow surfaces tasks for a human decision rather than changing Checkvist.
