Put a solar generation question on a path to an answer
When the team asks what solar could produce at a named location, let Notis fetch the Corrently forecast for the discussion.
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
PV Generation Forecast
Tool to get solar energy production forecasts (hourly output and loss estimates) for a specific location. use when you need hourly pv generation data to optimize energy scheduling.
Why this helps
A good planning question can sit in a thread without a clear owner to gather the supporting forecast.
- Attach forecast data to the question that prompted it.
- Reduce the need to assign a separate research follow-up.
- Support planning with location-specific hourly estimates.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Corrently to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation for PV planning questions.
- 3Write one prompt describing how to recognize an explicit request for solar generation estimates and request the Corrently forecast for its location.
- 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a run-report channel.
- 5Test with a real planning message asking about PV output for a specific location.
Questions about this workflow
Will every mention of solar start a forecast?
Tell Notis to act only on messages that ask for a forecast and include an adequate location.
Can the workflow make the energy decision?
It requests forecast data; the team can use the hourly output and loss estimates to inform its decision.
