Refresh an inventory question when its reaction is removed

Removing a follow-up reaction can prompt Notis to recheck the item information before the thread is considered handled.

Trigger

Why this helps

A reaction can be removed before anyone has checked whether stock information is still needed or current.

  • Refresh the item context at a natural follow-up point.
  • Surface current quantities before closing out a thread.
  • Reduce uncertainty about unresolved inventory questions.

  • 2Create an automation or describe how Notis should check BoxHero when the chosen follow-up reaction is removed from an inventory question.
  • 3Pick the Slack Message Reaction Removed trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test by removing the chosen reaction from a message naming a tracked item.
