Launch a sandbox from a Slack request
Turn a channel request for a fresh coding environment into a new E2B sandbox, so setup starts without a context-switching detour.

Examples
Ways Notis can move work from Slack to E2b
Reconnect to a sandbox mentioned in Slack
When a channel message asks to resume work in an existing E2B sandbox, reconnect to it and retrieve its details.
Check sandbox status from Slack
Turn a Slack channel question about a specific E2B sandbox into a status and configuration lookup.
Retrieve sandbox logs after a Slack error report
When a channel message flags a specific E2B sandbox problem, retrieve its logs to help the team investigate.
Review sandbox lifecycle from Slack
When someone asks about a sandbox's recent changes in Slack, retrieve its latest lifecycle events.
Inspect sandbox resource use on request
Respond to a Slack question about one sandbox's resource use by retrieving its CPU, memory, and disk metrics.
Check a template build from Slack
When a Slack message asks whether an E2B template build is ready, retrieve its current build status.
Pause a sandbox from a direct message
Turn a direct request to pause a running E2B sandbox into a pause action that preserves its filesystem and memory state.
Adjust sandbox lifetime from a Slack DM
Extend or reduce a specified E2B sandbox timeout when a direct message asks for a lifetime change.

Trigger Types
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a schedule (recurring or one-time), and a change in one of your Notis databases.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,500+ apps can start a workflow.
New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Scheduled triggers
Run a workflow on the clock, on a recurring schedule or once at a set date and time. Daily standups, hourly syncs, a one-off launch reminder: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers
Fire when a row in one of your Notis databases is added or edited, with optional filters on its properties. New lead added, status changed, value crosses a limit.

Why AI automation
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
