Why this helps

A teammate's triage signal can create an invisible follow-up task to search for the related error details.

  • Use a familiar reaction as a lightweight triage signal.
  • Retrieve error context without asking someone to search manually.
  • Make the follow-up to a marked message easier to notice.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Bugsnag to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
  • 3Describe one outcome: when the chosen Slack reaction is added to a message, find relevant Bugsnag errors and summarize them.
  • 4Choose the Slack message reaction added trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test by adding the reaction to one real triage message and review the result.
