Close the loop on private graduation confirmations
Keep an individual graduation handoff from being lost by tying a direct message confirmation to certificate issuance.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Bulk Create Credentials (V2)
Tool to bulk create credentials. use when batching up to 30 credentials in one call; supports multi-status (207) responses.
Why this helps
One-to-one confirmations are easy to miss when they arrive outside the public channel where cohort tasks are tracked.
- Carry a private completion handoff into the issuing step.
- Reduce reliance on remembering a DM after switching tasks.
- Recognize individual graduates even when confirmation is shared privately.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Accredible certificates to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to handle authorized graduation confirmations from DMs.
- 3Use one instruction to define a clear graduation confirmation and the credential information needed before issuance.
- 4Choose Direct Message Received as the trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real, authorized DM example and review the credential result.
Questions about this workflow
Does the trigger include direct messages?
Yes. Direct Message Received catches new DMs across all DM channels and does not require a channel post.
Can a DM without enough details issue a credential?
Tell Notis in the instruction to report missing information and not issue until the confirmation and recipient details are clear.
