Get the role metadata behind the question before you draft your response.

Trigger

Triggered when a new message is received in the Outlook mailbox.

Action

Get Role

Tool to retrieve details of a specific role. use when you need to inspect permissions and metadata of a role by id.

Why this helps

Role questions require a precise lookup, and the relevant permission details are easy to miss under inbox pressure.

  • Draft more accurate replies
  • Reduce permission misunderstandings
  • Keep the lookup tied to the request

  • 1Connect Outlook and Appveyor to Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for role detail lookups.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the role in the message, retrieve its details, and summarize the answer with any missing identifiers.
  • 4Choose New Outlook Message as the trigger and select where reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real role question.
