Why this helps
A one-to-one firewall question can become an easy-to-forget manual follow-up.
- Prompt a metadata lookup from a direct request.
- Keep the result tied to the originating question.
- Reduce manual follow-up on security information.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Buildkite to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Tell Notis in one plain-language instruction to fetch Buildkite API metadata when a DM requests webhook IPs or firewall information.
- 4Choose the Slack direct-message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real DM asking for webhook IP information.
