Mark it in Slack, track it in ClickUp
A simple reaction can tell Notis that a message needs follow-up.
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 a task
Creates a new clickup task in a specific list, optionally as a subtask if a `parent` task id (which cannot be a subtask itself and must be in the same list) is provided.
Why this helps
Typing out a task while reading a conversation adds friction and makes quick capture less likely.
- Capture selected messages with one familiar gesture.
- Reduce interruptions during active conversations.
- Give reacted-to work a trackable home in ClickUp.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and ClickUp to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation prompt asking Notis to create a ClickUp task from a message when you add your chosen reaction.
- 3Pick the Slack Message Reaction Added trigger and select a run-report channel.
- 4Test by reacting to one real message and checking the task context.
Questions about this workflow
Can I use a reaction to select only messages worth tracking?
Yes. Describe the reaction you intend to use in the plain-language prompt and have Notis act only on that signal.
Does this react to messages from other people?
The trigger runs when a reaction is added to a Slack message. State in the prompt which reacted-to messages should become tasks.
