Notis

Create a Discord thread for every support email

Give every customer request a dedicated place to move forward.

Trigger

New Outlook Message

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

Action

Create new thread in channel

Creates a new thread in a text or announcement discord channel; requires a 'name' and optionally other details (e.g., 'auto archive duration', an initial 'message') in the request body.

Why this helps

Support conversations fragment across inboxes and chat channels.

  • Keep each request together
  • Make ownership visible
  • Preserve a searchable summary

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Discordbot in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation and name the support triage workflow.
  • 3Tell Notis to summarize each support email, create a thread, and include a suggested owner and due date.
  • 4Pick New Outlook Message as the trigger and choose the Discord channel for new threads.
  • 5Test it with one real support request.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis identify the right owner?

It can suggest an owner from the email context, but your team should confirm assignment.

Does this send a reply to the customer?

No. It creates a Discord thread for internal handling.
