Use an approval reaction as a cue to check the available Echtpost templates and keep planning moving.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
List templates
This tool retrieves a list of all available templates in the echtpost account. templates serve as the base design for postcards and are essential for creating cards. the action operates independently using only an authentication token and returns detailed template information including id, name, description, preview url, type, and creation time. this action is crucial for viewing templates before creating cards and obtaining the necessary template ids for subsequent actions.
Why this helps
After a team signals approval, the practical next step of checking design options can still be forgotten.
- Make template review follow the team's existing approval signal.
- Reduce the gap between agreement and a concrete next step.
- Return design options without implying that a mailing has been created.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Echtpost to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis conversationally to make one.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction to retrieve and report Echtpost templates when a mailing proposal receives the team's approval reaction.
- 4Choose the Slack message reaction added trigger and a channel for run reports; test with one real approved proposal.
Questions about this workflow
Does the reaction itself send anything through Echtpost?
No. It triggers the template list action, which retrieves available templates for review.
Can the trigger be limited to an approval emoji or channel?
The listed reaction trigger supports optional channel and emoji filtering. Select the trigger in Notis; the workflow's prompt describes the intended outcome.
