Why this helps
It is easy to miss an approval buried in a busy thread and leave the next step stalled.
- Use an explicit reaction to signal readiness.
- Start a fresh session for the approved task.
- Avoid repeatedly checking a thread for confirmation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Browserbase tool to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create a named automation in Automations and write an instruction to start a Browserbase session for messages approved with your chosen reaction.
- 3Select Message Reaction Added as the trigger and specify the approval reaction in your plain-language instruction.
- 4Choose the channel where Notis should report runs.
- 5Test by reacting to one Slack message that describes a real browser task.
