Why this helps
A lightweight approval reaction can be easy to overlook when someone still needs to update the Crowdin strings.
- Moves a clear, reaction-approved decision into Crowdin.
- Uses an existing team review habit to reduce follow-up.
- Keeps the review context attached to the resulting action.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Crowdin to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to apply labels after a designated review reaction.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction describing the approved reaction and requiring clear project, label, and string context in the reacted-to message.
- 4Choose the Slack message reaction added trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real, clearly scoped review message and the agreed reaction; verify the Crowdin labels.
Questions about this workflow
Does any reaction apply the label?
Describe the specific reaction that signals approval in your instruction, and limit use to messages with clear Crowdin context.
Can this apply a label that does not exist yet?
No. The action assigns an existing label, so create the label in Crowdin first.
