Notice important wording when it appears
Let a chosen keyword in a document create a small Slack review cue, without repeatedly searching the file.
Trigger
Keyword Detected in Document
Triggers when a specific keyword or phrase first appears in a Google Doc. This trigger monitors a Google Doc and fires once when the specified keyword is detected. After the keyword is found, the trigger will not fire again until reset.
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
Important phrases can be added to a working document without reaching the people who need to review them.
- Spot the first appearance of a specified phrase.
- Prompt a review through a reaction on a related Slack message.
- Avoid repeated manual searches of a working document.

- 1Connect Google Super and Slack to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the phrase and related Slack message that should receive a reaction.
- 3Pick Keyword Detected in Document as the trigger and choose the channel for run reports.
- 4Test with a monitored document and one real occurrence of the phrase.
