Notis

Use a reaction to look up the image under review

Trigger

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

Search Images

Tool to search for images and their alt text. use after specifying search keywords to retrieve matching images.

Why this helps

Review requests get acknowledged, but the follow-up to locate the asset can still slip through.

  • Turns a deliberate reaction into a consistent lookup.
  • Keeps the image search tied to the reviewed message.
  • Makes existing alt text easy to inspect before feedback.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Alttext ai to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up conversationally.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to search Alttext ai for the image referenced by a review message when the agreed reaction is added, then report matching results.
  • 4Choose Message Reaction Added and select a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test by adding the agreed reaction to a real image review message.

Questions about this workflow
