Why this helps
Manual answer searches can break the flow between spotting a follow-up and acting on it.
- Retrieve relevant answers from a direct request.
- Help keep follow-up moving while the conversation is active.
- Reduce the chance a data request gets lost after the DM.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Datascope to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Write one prompt describing how to retrieve answers relevant to the request in a DM.
- 4Choose the Slack direct message trigger and a run-report channel, then test with one genuine follow-up request.
