Why this helps

A confirmed giving decision can remain unfinished when copying its details feels like one more task.

  • Moves a clear instruction into the giving tool
  • Requires an explicit recipient and amount
  • Reports the outcome back in a chosen channel

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Daffy to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or describe it to Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use one prompt to create a gift only from a direct request that clearly names the recipient and amount; do not infer an ongoing schedule from the wording.
  • 4Select the Slack channel message trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real, clearly specified gift request.

Questions about this workflow

Will this set up recurring donations?

No. Create Gift is used for a specified gift. Do not interpret a schedule mention as authorization to create repeated gifts.

Can it fill in a missing amount?

No. The prompt should require the amount and recipient in the message.
