Keep event follow-up contacts from getting buried

Turn a useful event introduction posted in Slack into a Calendarhero contact, so the next step does not depend on finding the message again.

Trigger

Channel Message Received

Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.

Action

Create Contact

Tool to create a new contact. use after confirming contact details before making the api call.

Why this helps

Potential partners and customers are often introduced in passing, then disappear into channel history.

  • Preserve contact details for later follow-up.
  • Avoid searching old Slack messages before reaching out.
  • Keep event-related contacts easy to retrieve.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Calendarhero to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a plain-language instruction to add only external event contacts when a message clearly shares usable details and follow-up intent.
  • 3Select Slack Channel Message Received and choose the relevant channel plus a run-report channel.
  • 4Test with one real event introduction that contains a name and contact detail.

Questions about this workflow

Will this add every event attendee?

No. The instruction should limit contact creation to people whose details are shared with clear follow-up intent.

What if an email is missing?

Have Notis ask for the missing contact detail before trying to create a record.
