Make project-hour reviews easier to notice
When project hours need a closer look, mark the relevant Slack conversation so it is easy to find and review.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add reaction to message
Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.
Why this helps
Hours that may need review can get buried in conversations, making it harder to follow up before project details go stale.
- Bring attention to a specific conversation.
- Keep the review signal lightweight.
- Tie hours context to the discussion already in Slack.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Clientary and Slack once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to review the supplied project-hour context and add a chosen reaction to the matching Slack message when it meets your review criteria.
- 4Choose a Notis webhook as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real project-hour example and its Slack channel and message timestamp.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis detect unusual hours automatically?
Only when you provide a review rule or baseline and the necessary hours data. Clientary exposes no trigger events in this workflow context.
What does the webhook need to identify the Slack message?
Provide the Slack channel and message timestamp, along with the project-hour context Notis should assess.
