Convert crypto amounts from Slack DMs

Ask in a DM to convert an amount between currencies and get a current conversion result.

Trigger

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

Action

Price Conversion

Tool to convert an amount from one cryptocurrency or fiat currency into another. Use when conversion rates are needed.

Why this helps

Manual conversions invite repeated lookups and small arithmetic mistakes during planning.

  • Handles stated amounts without separate calculator steps.
  • Keeps the original conversion request nearby.
  • Makes recurring comparison questions quicker to answer.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and CoinMarketCap to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language to create one.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to identify the amount, source currency, and target currency in a DM and return a CoinMarketCap conversion.
  • 4Choose the Slack direct message trigger and the channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real conversion request that specifies both currencies and an amount.

Questions about this workflow

What details should the request include?

Include a numeric amount and both the source and target currencies.

Are conversion values fixed?
