- Makes the remaining categories easier to scan.
- Connects cleanup to an explicit team decision.
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 remove labels the team has retired.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction to delete a Crowdin label only when Slack clearly confirms it is obsolete and identifies the label and project.
- 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real retirement decision and confirm the intended label was removed.
