Make client deliverables easy to hand off
Bring the completed file and the context needed for the next client-facing step into Slack.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add a remote file
Adds a reference to an external file (e.g., google drive, dropbox) to slack for discovery and sharing, requiring a unique `external id` and an `external url` accessible by slack.
Why this helps
A finished deliverable can be ready while the team still lacks a clear handoff and source link.
- Make deliverables easier to locate.
- Include the client and handoff details supplied.
- Help the next owner see what needs to happen next.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Cloudlayer and Slack once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome you want.
- 3Describe adding each completed deliverable as a remote file with its supplied client and handoff context.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real client deliverable.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow send a message as well as add the file?
This package uses the remote-file action. If a separate announcement is needed, create a workflow using the Slack post-message action.
What should the request include?
Include the file URL, unique external ID, and the client and handoff context you want teammates to see.
