- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally, in plain language.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to use Lists API Get List when a channel message requests websites using a named technology.
- 4Choose the Slack channel-message trigger and a run-report channel; test with one real technology query.
Questions about this workflow
How is this different from a company-list lookup with metadata?
This action retrieves websites using a technology; Get List With Meta is available when the request needs detailed company and site information.
Can a message name more than one technology?
Use a clear request naming the technology or technologies to look up.
