Know how much community conversation is waiting before you dive in
A scheduled unread-count check can help you plan a bounded catch-up session instead of opening chat without knowing what awaits.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Sendbird Get Unread Item Count
Tool to retrieve a user's unread item counts. use after you need the total unread messages, mentions, and channel counts for a specific user.
Why this helps
Unseen message volume can make it hard to choose when and how to re-enter community conversations.
- Make community catch-up easier to scope
- Build a predictable check-in rhythm
- See unread messages and mentions before opening every channel
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Inblog and Sendbird to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation with one plain-language instruction to retrieve unread counts for the intended user.
- 3Pick a recurring schedule that suits your community check-in routine.
- 4Choose a run-report channel and test using a valid Sendbird user.
Questions about this workflow
Does retrieving the count mark messages as read?
No. This action retrieves unread counts; it does not mark messages as read.
Can this count be sent into a group channel?
This package uses the unread-count retrieval action. The automation can report its result through the configured Notis run-report channel.
