Action

Get Product Overview

Tool to get analytics overview for a specified product type over a given time interval. use after specifying the product type and time range to obtain summary metrics.

Why this helps

A small analytics question can become a context switch that is easy to postpone amid a founder's other priorities.

  • Connects a check-in request to a focused product overview.
  • Supports faster decisions with less manual tab switching.
  • Keeps the selected time range explicit in the request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Beaconstac to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to fetch a Beaconstac product overview when a Slack check-in requests one.
  • 3Describe in a single plain-language instruction how to identify the product and time range requested.
  • 4Select Slack's Channel Message Received trigger and choose where Notis reports runs.
  • 5Test with a real check-in request and confirm the returned summary matches its requested scope.

Questions about this workflow

How is this different from a period overview?

This action requests an overview for a specified product type and time range; use the prompt to define the check-in's scope.

Does it generate a custom report?

It retrieves the Beaconstac product overview. The action is not a report builder.
