Make ingestion follow-up easier to remember
Share the Databox ingestion reference in Slack and have Notis check its status for you.
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 Dataset Ingestion Status
Tool to check the status of a specific data ingestion for a dataset. Use when you need to verify whether a data ingestion was successful by providing the dataset ID and ingestion ID returned from the initial POST request.
Why this helps
After starting an ingestion, remembering to check whether it succeeded can add another follow-up to an already busy day.
- Automates a clearly identified status check.
- Helps surface ingestion failures sooner.
- Reduces the mental load of remembering to verify a run.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Databox to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create one prompt asking Notis to check Databox ingestion status when a Slack message explicitly includes the required dataset ID and ingestion ID.
- 3Select Slack Channel Message Received and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with a valid ingestion reference and verify the returned status.
Questions about this workflow
What does the status check require?
It requires the dataset ID and ingestion ID returned from the initial data push.
Can it check an ingestion when those IDs are missing?
No. The prompt should ask for a status check only when both identifiers are present.
