Update a Convolo backstory from an edited Discord message

Keep character context aligned as your team corrects or expands the source brief.

Trigger

Message Edited

Triggered when an existing message in a monitored Discord channel is edited.

Action

Update Character Backstory

Tool to update a character's backstory. Use when you need to modify the backstory of an existing character after confirming its ID. Only the provided fields will be updated.

Why this helps

Corrections in team chat are easy to miss, leaving the assistant with outdated context.

  • Keep corrections synchronized
  • Preserve a clear source conversation
  • Avoid manual backstory reentry

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Discord and Convolo ai in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation that compares the edited message with the existing character context and updates only the needed backstory.
  • 3Pick Message Edited as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports should be posted.
  • 5Test by editing one message with a clear backstory correction.

Questions about this workflow

Will the whole backstory be replaced?

Tell Notis whether to replace or refine it, and identify the character whose backstory should change.

What if the edited message lacks enough context?

Notis can report that more context is needed instead of making an unsupported update.
