Review Countdown result sets from Slack

Bring recent run summaries into Slack so you can see what research output is available before taking follow-up action.

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 Result Sets

Tool to list result sets produced by a collection. Use when you need to retrieve all summary status of result sets generated by a collection within the 14-day retention window.

Why this helps

Founders can lose track of completed research runs when results are retained for a limited time.

  • Check available result sets from the relevant Slack thread.
  • Make follow-up on recent research easier.
  • Reduce the chance of overlooking expiring output.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Countdown api to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a plain-language instruction to list result sets for the collection requested in Slack.
  • 3Pick the Slack channel message trigger, choose a run-report channel, and test with a real collection history request.

Questions about this workflow

How far back can result sets be retrieved?

The listed action describes result sets within Countdown api's 14-day retention window.

Does this download result payloads?

No. It lists result sets and their summary status; fetching a result set uses a separate action.
