Notis

Activate team groups on Discord milestones

Your Discord channel announces a project launch or team milestone. Notis enables the corresponding Slack user group (if it's disabled), so the team can immediately coordinate celebration, follow-up, and next steps.

Trigger

New Discord Message Trigger

Polls a specific Discord channel for new messages.

Action

Enable a user group

Enables a disabled user group in slack using its id, reactivating it for mentions and permissions; this action only changes the enabled status and cannot create new groups or modify other properties.

Why this helps

Milestones and launches create coordination urgency, but activating team groups is a manual step that slows momentum.

  • Activate team coordination at critical moments automatically
  • Keep team momentum going without friction
  • Reduce coordination delays after milestones
  • Celebrate wins without manual overhead

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Discord and Slack to Notis
  • 2Create a new automation with the prompt: 'When a Discord message announces a milestone or launch, enable the corresponding Slack user group so the team can coordinate immediately'
  • 3Choose the trigger: New Discord Message from your announcements channel
  • 4Select the Slack reporting channel
  • 5Test by posting a milestone announcement in Discord and verify the Slack user group is enabled

Questions about this workflow

What if the user group doesn't exist yet?

Your prompt can handle this: 'enable the group if it exists, otherwise create it and enable it'.

Can this work for multiple initiatives at once?

Yes. Notis can parse multiple initiatives from Discord messages and manage each user group independently.

How long is the group enabled?

It stays enabled. You can create a companion cron workflow to disable it after the milestone period ends.
