Action

Why this helps
A missing file report can turn into back-and-forth searching before anyone knows what is in the account.
- Give the person a concrete inventory to compare against.
- Reduce repeated searching and clarification messages.
- Help route the issue to a document owner with context.
Setup

- 1Connect Slack and Boloforms to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation prompt to retrieve the Boloforms list when a DM reports a missing document.
- 3Choose the Slack direct message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with a real missing-document DM and confirm the response is helpful.
Questions about this workflow
Will it restore or resend a missing document?
No. It only retrieves the current document list.
Can it prove the file is absent?
