Review bot options for every new Slack channel
A new space can come with new support needs. Use Chatbotkit's bot list to make assistant discovery part of channel setup.
Trigger
New Channel Created Trigger

Action
List Bots
Tool to retrieve a paginated list of all bots. use when you need to browse or manage multiple bots, and iterate pages via cursor.
Why this helps
New channels can multiply without anyone pausing to consider whether an existing assistant could reduce recurring questions.
- Make assistant discovery part of a channel's launch routine.
- See what bots are available before creating another workflow.
- Reduce duplicate setup decisions across workspaces.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Chatbotkit to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3In one plain-language instruction, ask Notis to use the Chatbotkit bot list when a new Slack channel is created and report relevant options.
- 4Choose the new-channel-created trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Create one test channel and check that the bot inventory supports a useful decision.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a bot automatically?
No. The available action lists bots so you can review options; it does not create or configure a bot.
Can this help prevent duplicate bots?
It can surface the existing bot inventory when a channel is created, helping the team review existing options.
