Notis

Approve Imports and New Lists Together

New lists get imported without team review. Notis creates approval groups so your team vets new audiences before they are used.

Trigger

Profile Update Trigger

Triggered when a subscriber's profile is updated in Mailchimp

Action

Create a Slack user group

Creates a new user group (often referred to as a subteam) in a slack workspace.

Why this helps

List additions happen silently. You discover bad data only after sending to a problematic audience.

  • Catch bad data before sending
  • Align team on new audiences
  • Maintain data quality standards

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Mailchimp and Slack to your Notis account
  • 2Tell Notis: 'Create a Slack user group for approval when a new subscriber list is added to Mailchimp'
  • 3Include important team members in the group automatically
  • 4Notis creates groups for new lists needing review
  • 5Review list quality, metadata, and source before approval

Questions about this workflow

Should every list need approval?

Start with large imports or third-party sources. Your regular subscriber list does not need constant approval.

What should we check?

List size, source, verification status, compliance (GDPR, CAN-SPAM), and overlap with existing lists.

Can I disable the group after approval?

Yes, disable it in Slack once the list is approved. Archive if you may need it for future audits.
