Ways Notis can move work from Slack to Convertapi
Create page images from shared PDFs
Turn a PDF shared in a Slack channel into stored JPG page images for visual review or downstream processing.
Convert large shared files asynchronously
Start an asynchronous Convertapi conversion when a channel message shares a file too large or slow for a quick conversion.
Import a file link from a direct message
When a Slack DM includes a remote file link for processing, have Convertapi import the file directly from its URL.
Stage shared files for conversion
Upload a file shared in a Slack channel to Convertapi temporary storage so it is ready for a later conversion workflow.
Stage raw file data efficiently
Upload raw file data from a Slack channel request to Convertapi using the octet-stream upload action.
Create an editable copy when a PDF gets approved
Use a chosen Slack reaction to signal that a shared PDF is ready for DOCX conversion.
Prepare PDF pages for visual review on reaction
When a team reacts to a Slack message to request visual review, create JPG page images from its PDF.
Check input formats for a chosen output
When a channel message names a desired output format, list the input formats Convertapi supports for it.

Trigger Types
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a schedule (recurring or one-time), and a change in one of your Notis databases.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,500+ apps can start a workflow.
New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Scheduled triggers
Run a workflow on the clock, on a recurring schedule or once at a set date and time. Daily standups, hourly syncs, a one-off launch reminder: the workhorse of Notis.

Fire when a row in one of your Notis databases is added or edited, with optional filters on its properties. New lead added, status changed, value crosses a limit.

Why AI automation
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
