Get validator details in a Slack DM
Send a validator question by DM. Notis can retrieve its Beaconchain information and return the lookup in the same private conversation.
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 Validator
Tool to retrieve information for a specific validator from beaconcha.in api.
Why this helps
Private questions are easy to leave unanswered when checking them requires stopping, finding the validator, and switching into a separate dashboard.
- Handle validator questions without leaving the DM.
- Retrieve information for the specific validator mentioned.
- Keep a private operational question visible to the person who raised it.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Beaconchain to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Ask Notis to create an automation that looks up the named validator in Beaconchain when a DM requests its details and replies in that DM.
- 3Select Direct Message Received as the trigger.
- 4Choose a run-report channel and test with a real DM containing a validator identifier.
Questions about this workflow
Can it look up any validator automatically?
The request needs to identify a specific validator for Beaconchain's Get Validator action.
Do I need to configure a validator field?
No. State in the prompt that Notis should use the validator identified in the DM; Notis interprets the instruction.
