Capture work with a Slack reaction
When a message needs action, mark it with your chosen reaction and let Notis put it into Dart.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
Create Task
Tool to create a new task in DART with title and optional metadata. Use when you need to add a task to a workspace.
Why this helps
Copying a useful message into a task manager adds friction right when you are trying to stay in the conversation.
- Capture a task with one familiar Slack gesture.
- Choose when a message becomes work instead of scanning every post.
- Keep the original conversation available as context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Dart to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3In one instruction, say which reaction marks a message for a new Dart task and what context to include.
- 4Choose the Slack reaction-added trigger and a report channel, then test by reacting to one real message.
Questions about this workflow
Can I choose the reaction that starts task capture?
Yes. Name the reaction in your instruction and use the corresponding Slack reaction trigger.
