Use a Slack reaction to signal certificate readiness
A clear reaction can mark a post as ready for credential issuance, reducing the need for another approval handoff.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
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
A team may agree that someone is ready for a certificate but leave the actual issuance buried among other tasks.
- Create a visible signal for credential readiness.
- Reduce back-and-forth after a completion decision.
- Start issuance from the message the team already uses to confirm the result.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Accredible certificates to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis for a reaction-based credential workflow.
- 3Write one instruction describing which reaction on which kind of message means the credentials are ready to issue.
- 4Select Message Reaction Added as the trigger, specify the intended Slack channel and emoji in the trigger options, and choose a run-report channel.
- 5Test the reaction on one real completion message and review the issued credentials.
Questions about this workflow
Can any reaction issue credentials?
Set the trigger's optional channel and emoji filters to the signal your team intends to use, and make the instruction clear about the qualifying message.
Can it issue several certificates from one message?
Yes. The bulk credential action can issue up to 30 credentials in one call.
