Trigger
Channel Message Received

Action
Collect Data With Questions
Tool to configure data collection forms by adding custom questions. Use after creating a service to collect survey questions after each scan.
Why this helps
Questionnaire details can stay in Slack while the service setup is still waiting in another tool.
- Carry survey planning into the CodeREADr question setup.
- Reduce copying and context loss between discussion and configuration.
- Keep setup completion visible through run reports.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and CodeREADr once through the Notis portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one instruction to add the requested custom data collection questions to the identified CodeREADr service when they are posted in Slack.
- 4Select the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a request that names the service and includes a small set of questions.
Questions about this workflow
