Give approved resources a reliable short link
When a useful resource gets the team's approval in Slack, Notis can create a Dub short link while the decision is fresh.
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
Upsert a Link
Tool to create or update a short link in Dub. Use when you need to create a new short link or update an existing one. If the link already exists (matching domain and key), it will be updated; otherwise, a new link will be created.
Why this helps
Approved guides and documents are hard to find again when their long URLs are scattered across conversations.
- Create short links for resources after the team agrees they are ready to share.
- Reduce repeated searches for the original conversation.
- Make approved materials easier to paste into future messages.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Dub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal with a plain-language prompt to create a Dub short link for resource URLs marked approved in Slack.
- 3Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one real resource URL and an approval message.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know a resource is approved?
Describe the words or context that indicate approval in the prompt, such as a clear approval marker in the message.
Will it shorten URLs that are only being discussed?
Tell the prompt to act only when the message indicates the resource is approved for sharing.
