Carry proposal corrections from Slack DMs into Bidsketch

When a direct Slack message identifies a proposal correction, let Notis apply the update to the matching record.

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

Update Proposal

Tool to update a specific proposal's details. use after retrieving a proposal to apply changes.

Why this helps

A quick correction sent privately can be easy to overlook when returning to proposal work later.

  • Give a direct correction a clear destination.
  • Reduce reliance on remembering a private message.
  • Keep the proposal details current.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Bidsketch in the Notis portal once.
  • 2Create an automation prompt asking Notis to update the matching proposal only when a DM contains a clear correction and proposal identity.
  • 3Select Slack's Direct Message Received trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one real correction that is safe to use.

Questions about this workflow

What kinds of corrections fit?

Use the prompt to define the proposal details that should be updated and require enough context to identify the correct proposal.

Does every DM trigger an update?

No. The prompt should limit the action to explicit proposal corrections.
