Make award approval a one-step signal

When the team adds the agreed reaction to an award request, move the approved credential into Certifier.

Trigger

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

Create, issue, and send credential

Tool to create, issue, and send a credential in a single request. use when group id and recipient details are ready.

Why this helps

Award decisions can be buried in discussion, leaving a founder to check back and remember when approval is final.

  • Give the team a lightweight approval signal.
  • Reduce repeated checks for a final decision.
  • Start credential delivery from the approved request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Certifier to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to act only when the agreed approval reaction is added to a nominated award message and recipient details are ready.
  • 4Select the Slack message reaction added trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test by adding the agreed reaction to one real award request.

Questions about this workflow

Will any reaction approve the award?

Specify the agreed reaction and the kind of message that qualifies in the instruction, then test it with a real request.

Can a reaction provide missing recipient details?

No. Ensure the request contains the recipient and group details needed for Certifier before using the reaction as approval.
