Make useful Slack answers reusable
Capture clear answers to practical questions and build a reference that helps people move forward without reopening old threads.
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
Create Text Document
Tool to create a text document in the ElevenLabs knowledge base. Use when you need to add text content that the agent will access for user interactions.
Why this helps
The founder keeps answering the same operational questions because useful answers are scattered across Slack.
- Makes recurring answers easier to retrieve.
- Reduces repeat interruptions for the founder.
- Preserves an answer with enough context to be useful.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Elevenreader to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Write one instruction asking Notis to save clear answers to recurring work questions from channel messages as concise Elevenreader notes, retaining the question context.
- 4Pick Slack Channel Message Received and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real question and answer pair and verify they remain understandable together.
Questions about this workflow
Will it create an FAQ entry for every reply?
Tell Notis to capture only clear, reusable answers rather than tentative discussion or casual replies.
Can it preserve the original question?
Yes. Ask Notis to include a brief version of the question with each saved answer.
