Turn catalog organization decisions into categories
Once your team agrees on a category in Slack, Notis can create it in Cloudcart and report back.
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
Create Category
Tool to create a new category. use when you need to add organizational structure to your product catalog.
Why this helps
New catalog structure gets delayed when category decisions do not become a follow-up task.
- Turns a settled organizational decision into a catalog action.
- Reduces the need to remember a separate admin task.
- Uses an approval condition to avoid creating brainstorm ideas.

- 1Connect Slack and Cloudcart to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Describe in plain language when Notis should create an approved category.
- 3Select Slack Channel Message Received as the trigger.
- 4Choose the run-report channel and test with one confirmed category.
Questions about this workflow
