Handle transcript upgrades from direct messages
Private requests for a more navigable transcript can move forward while the file and request are still easy to identify.
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
Order Upgrades
Tool to order an upgrade for a specific audio file. use after transcription is complete to add items like timestamps or extra editing. example: 'order timestamps for file 12345'.
Why this helps
A one-to-one request for transcript improvements can disappear beneath newer messages and urgent follow-ups.
- Keep a specific DM request from becoming a forgotten follow-up.
- Order timestamps for a completed transcript through CastingWords.
- Handle file improvements in the same flow as the request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and CastingWords to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create a new automation and describe the completed-file upgrade outcome in a plain-language instruction.
- 3Choose the Slack direct-message trigger and set the run-report channel.
- 4Test with a real DM that clearly identifies a completed file and asks for timestamps.

What if the message asks for a different upgrade?
The prompt should describe which upgrade this automation handles. The listed action orders upgrades for a specific audio file.
