Never Miss Footer Comments on Confluence Pages
Footer comments are easy to miss. Notis reacts in Slack when they appear, so feedback gets the attention it deserves.
Trigger
New Footer Comment Added to Page
Triggers when a new footer comment is added to a Confluence page.
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
Footer comments accumulate silently. Readers add feedback, but it goes unnoticed because comments are below the fold.
- Footer comments surface in Slack immediately, not days later
- Reactions flag feedback without overwhelming your channel
- Reader input gets acted upon instead of ignored
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Confluence and Slack to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a footer comment is added to a Confluence page, add a reaction in Slack.'
- 3Specify the emoji you want to use (e.g., 'comment' or 'speech-bubble').
- 4Test by adding a footer comment to a page and watching the reaction appear.
Questions about this workflow
What's the difference between a footer comment and a regular comment?
Footer comments appear at the bottom of the page, usually for general feedback. Inline comments are attached to specific sections.
Can I include the comment text in Slack?
Yes. Tell Notis to include a snippet of the comment alongside the reaction.
Can I filter by page or space?
Absolutely. You can apply this automation to specific pages or all pages in a space.
