Resolve event subcategory questions inside the planning flow
Let a planning-channel message trigger the Eventbrite subcategory lookup so classification questions do not become loose ends.
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
Get Event Subcategories
Tool to list all event subcategories. use when fetching available subcategory options, optionally filtered by locale after selecting a category.
Why this helps
Detailed classification decisions are easily dropped when they appear midway through a busy Slack thread.
- Captures questions where the discussion already happens
- Reduces small administrative interruptions
- Keeps the selected category context visible to the team
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Eventbrite to Notis once.
- 2Ask Notis to retrieve Eventbrite subcategories when a planning-channel message requests options for a stated category.
- 3Choose Channel Message Received, select a run-report channel, and test with one category request.
Questions about this workflow
Can the request include a locale?
Yes. Include the desired locale in the message or the automation prompt.
Does the Slack message need a rigid template?
No. Notis interprets the plain-language request and its category context.
