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
List Pipelines for Project
Tool to list all pipelines for a specific project. use when you need to retrieve the pipelines for a project (e.g., to display recent runs on a dashboard).
Why this helps
A quick private status check can otherwise require navigating multiple channels and a separate dashboard.
- Keep personal status checks private until you are ready to share.
- Retrieve recent project pipelines from a direct request.
- Prepare for a team update with less tool switching.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and CircleCI to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation with a plain-language instruction to retrieve recent pipelines for the project named in a DM.
- 3Pick the Slack direct message trigger and choose where run reports should appear.
- 4Test by asking for a snapshot for a real CircleCI project in a DM.
Questions about this workflow
Can it use a project name from the DM?
Include an unambiguous CircleCI project reference in the request so Notis can identify which pipelines to retrieve.
Will the results be posted in a public channel?
Choose the channel for run reports during setup and consider where the private request should be reported.
