Keep your priority view current without recopying chat
Notis can update a designated Excel range with a concise summary of current priorities stated in Slack, giving you one place to orient before work.
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

Why this helps
Priorities change in chat, while a separate planning sheet can quickly become stale.
- Reduce repeated copying from chat into planning notes.
- Return to one concise view when deciding what to work on.
- Keep planning context close to your existing spreadsheet.

Questions about this workflow
Will this preserve other cells in the worksheet?
Specify the exact range intended for the priority snapshot in the prompt.
Can it distinguish a new priority from general discussion?
