Why this helps
When a discussion needs email evidence, searching the inbox manually breaks concentration.
- Turns a deliberate reaction into a lookup request.
- Uses message context to guide the email search.
- Returns inbox results without requiring a separate manual search.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Agent mail to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Tell Notis to list relevant Agent mail messages when the chosen lookup reaction is added to a channel message, using the message topic as search context.
- 4Select the Slack reaction added trigger, set the reaction filter if available, and choose a run-report channel.
- 5Test with a real message that has a clear email-search topic.
Questions about this workflow
Will any reaction start a search?
Use the trigger's optional emoji filter to reserve this workflow for a designated lookup reaction.
What happens if the message topic is unclear?
The report can note that more search context is needed instead of returning an unrelated result.
