Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
Get Validator
Tool to retrieve information for a specific validator from beaconcha.in api.
Why this helps
Technical requests often need a follow-up but are easy to forget when they arrive during a stretch of focused work.
- Capture an explicit signal that a validator question needs attention.
- Use Beaconchain to retrieve information for the validator in the message.
- Avoid reopening the same question later to remember what was requested.
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 validator in a message when it receives the chosen reaction and replies with the Beaconchain information.
- 3Select Message Reaction Added as the trigger.
- 4Choose a run-report channel and test on a real Slack message that identifies a validator.
Questions about this workflow
What should the Slack message include?
It should identify the specific validator because Beaconchain's Get Validator action retrieves information for one validator.
Can we choose a reaction?
Message Reaction Added supports optional emoji filtering. Select the appropriate Slack trigger configuration and describe the expected response in the prompt.
