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
List spaces
Lists all spaces that the authenticated user has access to in contentful. this is a fundamental operation needed before performing any other content management actions since most operations require a space id.
Why this helps
Finding the right Contentful space interrupts work and can leave a request waiting while someone searches the account.
- Find accessible spaces without leaving the conversation.
- Give collaborators one clear place to check before starting content work.
- Reduce repeated questions about which spaces are available.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Contentful to Notis once through the portal.
- 2In Automations, create an automation with a plain-language prompt to list accessible Contentful spaces when a channel message asks for the inventory and report the results.
- 3Select the Slack channel message trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
- 4Test with a real Slack request for the space list.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create or change any Contentful content?
No. It uses Contentful's List spaces action to retrieve spaces accessible to the authenticated user.
Will it respond in the original Slack channel?
Choose a run-report channel in the automation. The prompt can ask Notis to include the request context in its report.
