Answer where-is-that-folder messages faster
When a teammate asks for a frequently used folder in a DM, Notis can list Egnyte bookmarks to help identify the right destination.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
List Bookmarks
Tool to list all bookmarked folders for the authenticated user with pagination support. Use when you need to retrieve user bookmarks or check which folders are bookmarked.
Why this helps
Repeatedly locating familiar folders drains attention from higher-value work.
- Make known folder destinations easier to retrieve.
- Reduce repeated manual browsing in Egnyte.
- Give a focused response to a common direct-message request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Egnyte to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation or ask Notis to look up bookmarks when a folder is requested.
- 3Describe how to identify the relevant project folder request and summarize bookmark matches.
- 4Select the Slack direct message trigger and choose where run reports appear.
- 5Test with a DM asking for a bookmarked folder and confirm the relevant result.
Questions about this workflow
Does listing bookmarks add a bookmark?
No. This workflow retrieves existing bookmarks; it does not create one.
What if several bookmarks seem relevant?
Tell Notis to present the likely matches and ask for clarification rather than assume.
