Turn a Slack approval reaction into contact enrichment

Mark a message once and let Notis handle the lookup step that follows.

Trigger

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

Enrich Leads

Tool to create a lead enrichment request for work emails and direct phone numbers. Uses waterfall enrichment across multiple data providers for higher accuracy. Supports batches of 1-100 leads.

Why this helps

A team may agree to research a contact in Slack, then forget who was supposed to run the lookup.

  • Use an existing reaction as a quick signal to request enrichment.
  • Keep the decision and contact details tied to the original message.
  • Avoid adding another task just to remember a lookup.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Bettercontact to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Describe in one instruction which reacted-to channel messages should trigger enrichment for their named contacts.
  • 4Choose Slack Message Reaction Added and select where run reports should appear.
  • 5Test by adding the chosen reaction to one real message with a contact.
