Give new operations channels a property reference
When a team opens a new Slack channel, make the property directory easy to find from day one.
Trigger
New Channel Created Trigger
Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.
Action
Get a properties list

Why this helps
New channels often start without shared references, leading to repeated questions and context gaps.
- Put a useful reference into a new channel early.
- Reduce repeated introductory lookup questions.
- Help teammates orient themselves without extra setup work.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Apaleo to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation prompt asking Notis to retrieve the Apaleo property directory and post a concise reference when a new Slack channel is created.
- 3Select New Channel Created as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test by creating a suitable test channel and confirming the directory response.
Questions about this workflow
Will it post into every new channel?
The trigger fires on new channel creation. State in the prompt which channels are appropriate for a property reference and have Notis avoid sharing where the context is unclear.
Does this create an Apaleo property?
No. It retrieves the existing property list.
