Flag urgent Cloro findings in Slack

Use a webhook to run a Cloro check and make an important result stand out on the Slack message your team is already discussing.

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

Time-sensitive findings can get buried in busy channels, even after someone has gathered the evidence.

  • Use a visible reaction to draw attention to a specific Slack message.
  • Reserve the signal for criteria you explicitly define in the automation prompt.
  • Keep the result linked to the team's existing conversation.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cloro and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and describe the urgent signal and the Slack message to react to.
  • 3Tell Notis to run the Cloro check after the webhook and add a reaction only when returned evidence meets that signal.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and the destination for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real example, including a case where the signal is absent.

Questions about this workflow

Does the reaction event create a new Slack message?

No. It adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message identified by its channel and timestamp.

Can the workflow detect urgency on its own?

The criteria need to be specified in your instruction. The workflow should only react when the returned Cloro evidence supports them.
