Trigger

Action

Why this helps
A handoff can drop a useful detail when the next person has to reconstruct the application inventory themselves.
- Give the next person an application list to consult.
- Make app-related handoffs easier to resume after interruptions.
- Keep the lookup close to the task discussion.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Dnsfilter to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis what outcome you want in plain language.
- 3Ask Notis to retrieve the Dnsfilter application list when a Slack message explicitly requests application context for a handoff.
- 4Select the Slack channel message trigger and choose where run reports should be delivered.
- 5Test with one handoff request and confirm the inventory is easy to use.
Questions about this workflow
Does this assign the follow-up task?
No. It retrieves application information to support the handoff; task ownership remains with the team.
What should the message say to trigger it?
Use a clear request for the application inventory or application context in a handoff.
