Turn an approval reaction into an extractor lookup
A simple reaction can bring the extractor reference into the conversation at the moment it is needed.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
List document data extractors
Tool to list document data extractors. Use when you need identifiers and names of all extractors in your AlgoDocs account.
Why this helps
After a decision is made, someone still has to remember to look up which extractors are available.
- Connects an agreed reaction to a useful follow-up lookup.
- Provides current extractor names and IDs in the channel context.
- Avoids a separate reminder to fetch the reference.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and AlgoDocs to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis conversationally to set one up.
- 3Use a single plain-language instruction to list AlgoDocs extractors and share them when the agreed reaction is added to a Slack message.
- 4Choose the message reaction added trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 5Test by adding the agreed reaction to a real Slack message.
