Event details tend to arrive while you are juggling other work. Let Notis capture a speaker or organizer mentioned in Slack as a Dialpad contact.
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
Create new contact entry
The createcontact endpoint adds a new contact to dialpad's system. use it to create local or shared contacts with comprehensive information. ideal for user onboarding, data migration, or system integrations. supports various contact details, with some fields restricted to single-line entries for consistency.
