Action

Get Remote Control Preset

Tool to get details for a specific Remote Control Preset by name. Use after listing or identifying available presets to fetch their configuration including groups, properties, and functions.

Why this helps

Preset reviews can interrupt focused work when someone has to locate the asset and manually bring its details back to Slack.

  • Retrieve the named preset's groups, properties, and functions.
  • Keep a technical lookup close to the Slack request that triggered it.
  • Reduce manual back-and-forth when reviewing a preset.

  • 1Connect Slack and Epic games to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to retrieve a Remote Control preset when Slack requests a review.
  • 3Write one plain-language instruction to use the preset name in the message and report the configuration details.
  • 4Select the Slack channel message trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real request naming an existing preset.
