Start a subscriber deadline from Slack

Move a clearly specified promotion request into Deadline Funnel without copying the details by hand.

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

Start Deadline via Custom Webhook

Tool to start an individual subscriber’s deadline tracking via a custom webhook URL. Use after generating a campaign-specific webhook token. Example: StartDeadlineCustomWebhook(account_id='123456', token='abcdef', email='joe@example.com')

Why this helps

A subscriber can miss a time-limited promotion when the start request is buried in Slack and never makes it to the funnel.

  • Use a Slack request as the prompt to start individual subscriber tracking.
  • Keep the request's promotion context with the team discussion.
  • Reduce manual handoffs for time-sensitive starts.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Deadline Funnel to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
  • 3Write one plain-language instruction to start Deadline Funnel tracking for an approved Slack request that includes the subscriber email and campaign context.
  • 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one approved real example and verify the subscriber start in Deadline Funnel.

Questions about this workflow

What does the custom webhook action require?

Starting tracking uses the account ID, campaign-specific webhook token, and subscriber email. The action must have the required webhook details available.

Should casual Slack mentions start tracking?

Use the instruction to define an explicit approved request. Test the workflow before relying on it for live subscribers.
