Why this helps
Lookup requests can be buried in chat, leaving people to search for the right information later.
- Creates a clear signal for folder inventory requests.
- Retrieves current information from Docupilot when the request is marked.
- Reduces back-and-forth about where documents belong.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Docupilot to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation or ask Notis to create one using a plain-language instruction.
- 3Tell Notis to list available Docupilot folders only when the agreed reaction is added to a message asking for the list.
- 4Choose Slack Message Reaction Added and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test on one real folder-list question with the agreed reaction.
