Bring priority work into focus

Why this helps
A long spreadsheet can add friction when you are trying to focus on only today's priority items.
- Reduce scanning when a clear priority comes up.
- Make a relevant table view easier to reach.
- Support a faster return to focused work.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Excel to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation with a prompt to apply the appropriate filter to your named Excel follow-up table when a Slack message explicitly flags a priority.
- 3Choose Channel Message Received and choose where run reports should appear.
- 4Test with one real priority message and confirm the intended table filter is applied.
