Send approved consultant SOWs for signature

Close the gap between agreeing on a scope and getting the signed SOW back.

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

Send Signature Request

Tool to create and send a new signature request with documents. Use when you need to send documents for electronic signature. The action sends emails to all specified signers with links to view and sign the documents. Supports multiple signers, CC recipients, custom fields, form fields, and various signing options. Documents can be uploaded directly or provided via publicly accessible URLs.

Why this helps

Consultant onboarding can stall when a founder must remember to send one more document after scope review.

  • Move a final scope into signing after approval.
  • Reduce repeated reminders to start consultant paperwork.
  • Keep the scope decision and document handoff together.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Dropbox Sign to Notis once.
  • 2Create this automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
  • 3Write one instruction to send the prepared SOW only after a clear approval and when the consultant signer is identified.
  • 4Select the Slack channel message trigger and choose the run-report channel.
  • 5Test with one approved SOW and confirm the correct consultant receives it.

Questions about this workflow
