Find the right Chaser customer from a Slack request

When someone asks about a customer in a channel and includes its source-system ID, Notis can fetch the matching Chaser record for the conversation.

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

Get Customer by ID

Tool to retrieve details for a specific customer by their external (source system) id. use after obtaining the external id when you need specific customer information.

Why this helps

Switching tools to look up a customer interrupts the flow of answering a quick team question.

  • Answer customer record questions in the working conversation.
  • Use a specific identifier to reduce mistaken lookups.
  • Avoid opening Chaser for every quick question.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Chaser to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally, asking it to retrieve a Chaser customer only when the Slack request includes that customer's external ID.
  • 3Pick Slack Channel Message Received as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with one real lookup request and confirm the returned customer is the intended one.
