- 2Create an automation through the portal or ask Notis for it in plain language.

- 4Choose the Slack channel-message trigger and the report channel.
- 5Test with one real confirmed removal request and verify the intended file was removed.
Questions about this workflow
Can the file be selected by its name alone?
The action deletes an uploaded file by its identifier. Make sure the identifier is known and the removal is clearly confirmed.
Is this the same as deleting a URL source?
No. Uploaded files and bot data use separate delete actions and identifiers.
