Notis

Keep Slack approvals visible on Dart tasks

Record a quick approval beside the work it unblocks, so the next person has useful context.

Trigger

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

Add Task Comment

Tool to create a new comment on a DART task. Use when you need to add feedback, notes, or discussion to a specific task. Supports markdown formatting and threaded replies via parentId.

Why this helps

An approval reaction can be hard to interpret later when separated from the task it was meant to unblock.

  • Keep approval context attached to the related task.
  • Make it easier to see why work proceeded.
  • Use a quick reaction without losing a record.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Dart to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis which approval reaction should add an approval comment to the matching Dart task.
  • 4Choose the reaction-added trigger and run-report channel, then test by approving a real task-related message.

Questions about this workflow

Can the workflow add a comment for every reaction?

Specify the approval reaction and intended task context in the instruction so unrelated reactions are not treated as approvals.

What if there is no matching task?

Describe how Notis should handle messages that do not clearly correspond to an existing Dart task.
