See shared metrics as a chart
Turn numbers posted in Slack into a simple visual you can inspect without building a chart by hand.
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
Run Terminal Command
Run a command in the terminal and returns the stdout, stderr, and error code. use /home/user folder to write/read files.
Why this helps
Metrics shared as text are easy to overlook and difficult to compare across updates.
- Convert numeric updates into a visual.
- Spot changes more quickly than in a text thread.
- Save time on small one-off charts.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Codeinterpreter to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation with one prompt describing which numbers to plot and the chart file to create.
- 3Pick Channel Message Received for the metrics channel and choose a report channel.
- 4Test with one real message containing clearly labeled values.
Questions about this workflow
What if the message has no numbers?
Ask Notis to skip chart creation and report that no usable metrics were found.
Can the chart include multiple measures?
Describe the measures and labels in the prompt, and test with an example that contains those values.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Slack to Codeinterpreter. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Slack triggers
Codeinterpreter actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create Sandbox
Create a sandbox to execute python code in a jupyter notebook cell. this is useful for agents to communicate, execute code, see output, read files, write files, etc. it's like you own personal computer, but in the cloud. use /home/user folder to write/read files.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Execute Code
Execute python code in a sandbox and return any result, stdout, stderr, and error. use /home/user folder to write/read files. try to not use plt.show() as the code is executed remotely. use files for image/chart output instead.
New Channel Created Trigger
Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.
Get File
Get a file from the sandbox and returns the file. the files should be read from /home/user folder.
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Run Terminal Command
Run a command in the terminal and returns the stdout, stderr, and error code. use /home/user folder to write/read files.
Direct Message Received

Message Reaction Removed
Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Reaction Added Trigger
DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_ADDED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
