Notis

Make an access blocker reaction actionable

A reaction can make a blocker visible without adding another message. Have Notis check Abyssale authentication when the team flags an access issue, so there is a concrete status to work from.

Trigger

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

Test Abyssale Authentication

Tool to test api authentication via the /ready endpoint. use after configuring your api key to ensure credentials are valid before other requests.

Why this helps

An acknowledged blocker can sit unresolved when nobody starts the first basic connection check.

  • Turns a visible blocker signal into a check
  • Reduces manual steps in initial troubleshooting
  • Helps clarify the next support step

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Abyssale to Notis once in the portal, including the Abyssale API key.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally for one.
  • 3Tell Notis to test Abyssale authentication when the chosen reaction is added to an access-blocker message.
  • 4Select the Slack Message Reaction Added trigger, set an emoji filter if useful, and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Add the reaction to a real test blocker message and review the check.

Questions about this workflow

Does this resolve the access problem?

It tests authentication and reports the check result; it does not change credentials.

How should the team use the reaction?

Agree on one reaction that means an Abyssale access blocker needs an initial check.
