Keep collaborator details ready for coordination

When a DM shares a new collaborator's contact information for an upcoming meeting, Notis can save it in Calendarhero so it is ready when needed.

Trigger

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

Action

Create Contact

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

Why this helps

Contact information shared in a private conversation is easy to overlook when the scheduling work comes later.

  • Keep collaborator details available for scheduling.
  • Avoid re-reading DMs to find an email later.
  • Reduce small administrative steps during busy weeks.

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 save a new collaborator only when a DM includes clear contact details and coordination intent.
  • 3Select Slack Direct Message Received and set a run-report channel.
  • 4Test with one real collaborator introduction containing a name and contact detail.

Questions about this workflow

Will this save any person mentioned in a DM?

The instruction should require an introduction, contact information, and a reason to retain the contact.

What if the contact may already be saved?

Ask Notis to check for an existing Calendarhero contact before creating one.
