- 5Test by reacting to one message containing a real gift ID.
Questions about this workflow
Does the message need a gift ID?
Yes. The instruction should tell Notis where to find the gift ID or how to flag messages without one.
Can this be limited to a specific emoji?
Tell Notis to act only when the designated reaction is added.
