Notis

Handle job checks without losing the DM request

Turn direct job questions into a focused lookup. Notis can retrieve Ascora jobs when a Slack DM asks what work is on the books.

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 Jobs

Tool to retrieve jobs. use when you need to filter and paginate job listings from ascora.

Why this helps

A DM can pull you away from planned work, then get forgotten once you return to your task.

  • Keeps a job lookup connected to its original request
  • Reduces context switching between DM and Ascora
  • Makes interrupted follow-up easier to resume

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Ascora to Notis once.
  • 2In the portal, create an automation, or ask Notis to set one up conversationally.
  • 3Use one instruction telling Notis to retrieve Ascora jobs when a Slack DM asks for a job check or list.
  • 4Choose the direct message trigger and run report channel, then test with a real DM-style job request.
