Use a Slack reaction to approve contact entry
Mark a message with your agreed reaction when its phone contact is ready, and let Notis add the stated details to Dialmycalls.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
Add Contact
Tool to add a contact to your contact list. use when you need to store a new contact's phone (and optional name, email, or group) before sending messages.
Why this helps
Repeatedly switching from a discussion to a contact tool interrupts focused work, even when the team has already agreed on the next step.
- Use a lightweight approval cue already in Slack.
- Keep contact entry attached to the source message.
- Avoid acting on unreviewed contact mentions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Dialmycalls to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to add contacts when a chosen reaction is added to a message.
- 3State one plain-language instruction naming the agreed reaction and requiring a phone number in the reacted-to message before adding the contact.
- 4Choose the reaction-added trigger with the relevant channel and emoji, select a run-report channel, and test on one real approved message.
Questions about this workflow
Does the reaction itself provide contact details?
No. The reacted-to message must contain the phone number and any other details to save.
Can I use this as a review signal?
Yes. Agree on a reaction that means contact entry is approved, then describe that meaning in the instruction.
