Notis

Handle report recipient changes from a DM

Ask for a report recipient update in a private message and let Notis apply the requested configuration change.

Trigger

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

Action

Update Report

Tool to update an existing report’s configuration. use when you need to modify the schedule, recipients, or format of a scheduled report.

Why this helps

Recipient changes can be forgotten when they sit as a note in a private conversation.

  • Turn a private maintenance request into an update to an existing report.
  • Reduce the burden of tracking small configuration changes.
  • Keep the report change aligned with the request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and DigiCert to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a plain-language instruction to update the recipients of the existing DigiCert report named in a Slack DM.
  • 3Select Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with one real request to update an existing report's recipients.
