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
Get Timeseries Exchange Rates
Tool to retrieve historical exchange rates for a given time period between start and end dates. Use when you need exchange rates for multiple dates in a date range for trend analysis or historical comparisons.
Why this helps
Budget comparisons can stall while someone reconstructs how an exchange rate moved during the period.
- Pull rates for a defined budget period.
- Keep the requested currency pair and dates together.
- Support repeatable retrospective comparisons.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and CurrencyScoop to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to retrieve timeseries rates when a budget message specifies a currency pair and date range.
- 3Select Channel Message Received as the trigger.
- 4Choose a channel for run reports and test with a real budget review request that names its period.
Questions about this workflow
Does this calculate a budget forecast?
No. It retrieves historical rate data for the specified date range.
What if the dates are missing?
The prompt should ask Notis to run only when the review period and currency pair are clear.
