Give image review handoffs the context they need
A direct handoff can prompt Notis to gather image details, so the next person has something concrete to review.
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
Get Images
Tool to retrieve a paginated list of images in your library, including their alt text and metadata. use when you need to browse or filter images programmatically after authentication.
Why this helps
Handoffs often pass along a task without the image record or its existing description.
- Adds image record context to a handoff.
- Shows existing descriptions before the next person reviews.
- Reduces back-and-forth to identify the asset.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Alttext ai once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction to retrieve the referenced image record and its current alt text when a DM hands off an image accessibility review.
- 4Select Direct Message Received and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real image-review handoff DM.
