Get recent campaign context without switching tools
When you need campaign history, a direct request can be enough. Notis can retrieve recent Emailoctopus campaigns and report what it finds.
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
Get Recent Campaigns
This tool retrieves a list of recent campaigns from the emailoctopus account. it uses the get endpoint at https://emailoctopus.com/api/1.6/campaigns and allows filtering by parameters like limit and page.
Why this helps
Campaign history can be a small blocker that turns into a separate task when the details live elsewhere.
- Brings recent campaign details into a requested workflow.
- Avoids a manual trip to Emailoctopus for basic history.
- Supports faster campaign planning in the current conversation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Emailoctopus to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Ask Notis to create an automation that retrieves recent Emailoctopus campaigns when you request campaign history by DM.
- 3State that the automation should return recent campaign information in one plain-language prompt.
- 4Choose the Slack direct message trigger and the channel for run reports.
- 5Test by sending one real campaign-history request and review the results.
