Use Slack reactions to check the Clockify client directory
Flag a client lookup with one lightweight signal and get the directory in context.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
Get Clients
Tool to list clients in a workspace. use after obtaining a workspace id.
Why this helps
Looking up clients in another app can break the flow of a conversation that only needs a quick cross-check.
- Makes a client cross-check easy to request
- Keeps lookup results close to the message
- Reduces unnecessary app switching
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Clockify to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to retrieve Clockify clients when a designated reaction is added to a message asking for a client cross-check.
- 3Write a single plain-language instruction that explains the reaction convention and asks for a useful client-list summary.
- 4Choose Message Reaction Added as the trigger and, if useful, filter by the channel or emoji.
- 5Test by adding the chosen reaction to a real client cross-check request.
Questions about this workflow
