Prepare new Slack channels for browser work

A new team channel can prompt a quick overview of the browser profiles available for upcoming tasks.

Trigger

New Channel Created Trigger

Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.

Action

List Profiles

Tool to fetch all stored browser profiles. use when you need an overview of all profiles available to the authenticated user (e.g., after creating or deleting profiles).

Why this helps

Starting a channel creates coordination overhead, and useful browser workspaces may be hard to remember when the first web task arrives.

  • Make available browser workspaces visible at channel kickoff.
  • Reduce the memory burden of recalling existing profiles.
  • Give the team a useful starting point for web tasks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Anchor browser to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to retrieve the profile list when a new Slack channel is created.
  • 3Write one plain-language instruction explaining which new channels need the overview.
  • 4Pick the New Channel Created trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
  • 5Test with a real newly created channel.

Questions about this workflow

Does this make a new browser profile for the channel?

No. It retrieves the stored profile list; it does not create a profile.

Can it run for every new channel?

The trigger detects new channel creation. Use the prompt to describe which kinds of new channels should receive the overview.
