Why this helps
Validator identifiers and status questions can get buried in chat while you manually move between Slack and a staking dashboard.
- Respond to a validator question where it was asked.
- Use Beaconchain to retrieve information for a specific validator.
- Reduce the chance that a technical question gets lost in a busy channel.
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 uses Beaconchain to look up a validator when a Slack channel message asks about one and replies with the result.
- 3Select Slack Channel Message Received as the trigger.
- 4Choose a run-report channel and test with a real Slack question that includes a validator identifier.
Questions about this workflow
Does the question need to identify a validator?
Yes. Beaconchain's Get Validator action retrieves information for a specific validator, so the Slack request should make clear which validator to check.
Can the reply stay with the original question?
Describe in the prompt that Notis should reply in the Slack conversation where the request appeared.
