Keep Slack updates with the Dart task
Carry a useful project update into the Dart task it belongs to, so its context is easier to find later.
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
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
Project context gets split between chat and tasks, making it harder to remember why work changed.
- Keep task discussion near the work it affects.
- Make project changes easier to find during a later review.
- Reduce repeated explanations across tools.
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, describe which Slack updates to add as comments to their matching existing Dart tasks.
- 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and report channel, then test with an update about a real task.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a Dart task if one does not exist?
This workflow is intended for comments on existing tasks. State clearly in the instruction how Notis should identify the matching task.
Can the comment preserve the Slack context?
Ask Notis to include the relevant update and useful context in the comment.
