Trigger

Action

List Event Categories

Tool to list all event categories. Use when you need to fetch available event categories.

Why this helps

An unfamiliar category list can slow event research while a founder hunts through another tool for definitions or coverage.

  • Shows the categories CoinMarketCal currently makes available.
  • Gives the team a shared reference for future event searches.
  • Avoids repeated manual browsing to find the category list.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and CoinMarketCal to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal, or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Give Notis one plain-language instruction to fetch the available CoinMarketCal event categories when someone asks about categories in a channel.
  • 4Select the Slack channel message trigger, choose a run-report channel, and test with a real category question.

Questions about this workflow

Does this automation define categories itself?

No. It retrieves the available category list from CoinMarketCal and summarizes the results.

Can the team use the list to refine event searches?

Yes. The returned names can help people state which category they want considered in a later event lookup.
