Get receipt records from a Slack DM
A quick DM can become a focused lookup of already parsed receipts, with the useful results brought back through Notis.
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
Get Multiple Document Results
Tool to retrieve parsed data from multiple documents processed by a specific parser. Use when you need to fetch results for multiple documents at once. Returns up to 100 results by default, with a maximum of 10000.
Why this helps
Reimbursement questions can get buried among messages and require repeated manual searches for receipt data.
- Responds to receipt questions without a separate manual search.
- Keeps small financial follow-ups from becoming lingering mental tasks.
- Provides a repeatable way to retrieve previously parsed receipt data.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Docparser to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation by asking Notis or using Automations in the portal, and describe the receipt lookup in one prompt.
- 3Choose the direct message trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 4Test by DMing a request for records from a real receipt parser.
Questions about this workflow
Will it run for a channel message?
This workflow uses the Slack direct message trigger, so it responds to DMs rather than channel messages.
Does it parse the receipt file itself?
No. It retrieves parsed results already available in Docparser.
