Keep postal case follow-up beside the original message

Give a lookup update its own discussion when teammates need to decide what action to take next.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create thread in message channel

Creates a new thread from a specific message in a discord channel, requiring `create public threads` permission (and `send messages` if in a forum/media channel).

Why this helps

Follow-up can split across channels when decisions are not connected to the original case.

  • Keep conversation connected to the posted case.
  • Make the next decision easier to find later.
  • Reduce context switching between a case and its discussion.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Postal Data API and Discordbot once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation and name it Postal case follow-up.
  • 3Write one plain-language prompt asking Notis to create a thread from the relevant Discord message when your backend sends a postal case that needs discussion.
  • 4Select an incoming webhook trigger, choose a run-report channel, and test with one real case message. Include the message identifier in the request so Notis can target it.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow post the original case message?

No. It creates a thread from a specific existing message; your prompt and webhook request need to provide the relevant message context and identifier.

What makes a case eligible for follow-up?

Let your backend apply your criteria and notify Notis only when a posted case needs a team decision.
