Give finance approval messages a document follow-up cue

After an approval note, Notis can retrieve the Boloforms list so the next person has a place to start.

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

Get Documents List

Tool to retrieve a list of documents associated with the account. use when you need to list all documents.

Why this helps

Approvals can move quickly while the paperwork check remains an easy-to-forget separate task.

  • Pair an approval discussion with a document inventory lookup.
  • Make the next human check easier to pick up.
  • Reduce reliance on a separate reminder to open Boloforms.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Boloforms to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with one prompt to retrieve Boloforms documents when a finance approval note arrives in a channel.
  • 3Select the Slack channel message trigger and a run-report channel.
  • 4Test with a real approval note and verify the list is relevant.

Questions about this workflow

Does this approve a Boloforms document?

No. It retrieves the document list and does not perform approval actions.

Can it infer a document from the note?

The action returns the list; have a person confirm the relevant record.
