Find available designs from a Slack request
A request for a template can get buried in a busy channel. Have Notis retrieve Abyssale designs when someone asks, keeping the next step close to the conversation.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Get Designs
Tool to retrieve all designs with optional filtering by category or type. use after authenticating to list available templates.
Why this helps
Switching away from Slack to search a design catalog can interrupt focused work and leave a request waiting.
- Responds to design lookup requests promptly
- Avoids a separate manual catalog search
- Keeps creative planning moving in context
Setup

- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve Abyssale designs when a channel message requests available designs.
- 4Select the Slack Channel Message Received trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Post a real design lookup request in a channel and review the run.
