Notis

Respond to weather concerns with current readings

A teammate flags a concern in Slack; Notis can retrieve the latest station readings to help the team think through its next step.

Trigger

Channel Message Received

Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.

Action

Get Devices

Tool to retrieve a list of user's ambient weather devices with their most recent data. use when you need to list your stations and view their latest readings.

Why this helps

Concerns can get repeated or remain unresolved when nobody has an easy path to check the current readings.

  • Give a raised concern a clear information-gathering step.
  • Use current connected station readings in the discussion.
  • Reduce the effort needed to find the relevant data.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Ambient Weather to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language which weather concerns should cue a station lookup.
  • 3Describe the concern context and the relevant latest readings to retrieve in one instruction.
  • 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real weather concern message.

Questions about this workflow

Does this contact anyone or escalate the concern?

No. The action retrieves readings. The team can decide what to do with them.

Can it run from a direct message concern?

Choose the direct message trigger if you want DMs to start the workflow.
