Give new project folders a visible kickoff
When you create a project folder in OneDrive, a Slack message can let collaborators know where work is beginning.
Trigger
OneDrive Folder Created Trigger
Triggers when a new folder is created in OneDrive. Uses Gmail-style state management for reliable duplicate prevention.
Action
Post message to channel
Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.
Why this helps
A folder can be ready before collaborators know it exists, causing duplicated setup and delayed coordination.
- Let collaborators know when a project space is ready.
- Reduce the manual step of announcing each folder.
- Help the team start from a shared location.

- 1Connect OneDrive and Slack to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation or tell Notis to announce a new project folder in a chosen Slack channel.
- 3Pick OneDrive Folder Created as the trigger and set a channel for run reports.
- 4Test by creating one real project folder and confirm the Slack notice points people to it.
