Clarify browser context in Slack support reports

Turn the technical header in a report into details the next teammate can use.

Trigger

Channel Message Received

Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.

Action

User Agent Parser API

Tool to parse a user-agent string into device, os, browser, and bot details. use when you have a raw user-agent header and need structured client info.

Why this helps

A vague bug handoff often leads to another round of questions about the device or browser involved.

  • Give the next teammate a readable environment summary.
  • Reduce follow-up questions about browser and device.
  • Keep debugging context close to the reported issue.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Big data cloud to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis conversationally to parse user-agent headers included in Slack support reports.
  • 3Write one instruction to return device, OS, browser, and bot details as a concise handoff.
  • 4Select the Slack channel message trigger and choose a run report channel.
  • 5Test with a real user-agent header from an approved report.

Questions about this workflow

What will the parser identify?

The User Agent Parser API provides device, operating system, browser, and bot details.

Can this work without the header?

The message needs to contain a raw user-agent string for the parser to interpret.
