Pair a Slack approval reaction with an impact snapshot
When the team marks a milestone with an agreed reaction, Notis can fetch the Ecologi totals to include in the run report.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
Get User Impact
Tool to get a combination of all impact types a user has funded: trees, carbon avoidance, carbon removal, and habitat restoration, in a single request. Data refreshes every 10 minutes and no authentication is required.
Why this helps
Approved milestones can move on quickly, leaving the impact context out of the record and follow-up.
- Use an existing team signal to prompt an impact lookup.
- Retrieve the combined Ecologi totals in one action.
- Give milestone follow-up a clear impact reference.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Ecologi to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Write one instruction asking Notis to retrieve the Ecologi combined impact totals when the team's chosen approval reaction is added.
- 4Choose Message Reaction Added, specify the emoji or channel if useful, and choose a report channel.
- 5Test by adding the reaction to one milestone message.
Questions about this workflow
Can the reaction trigger funding?
No. The available action retrieves existing impact totals and cannot fund an Ecologi project.
What reaction should I use?
Choose a reaction your team already uses to mark a milestone or approval, then select it in the trigger if filtering is available.
