Why this helps
When priorities change quickly, remembering what personal signals you track can add another mental task.
- See the available tracked attributes without searching another app.
- Connect a priority change to a lightweight personal review.
- Keep the automation informational and under your control.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Exist to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Start a new automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up conversationally.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction asking Notis to fetch your Exist attributes when a priority shift is posted and report the list with a brief review prompt.
- 4Pick the Slack channel message trigger and the channel for run reports.
- 5Test using a real priority update in Slack.
Questions about this workflow
Does this add a new tracked attribute?
No. The Exist action only retrieves attribute metadata; it does not create or update tracking.
Can the prompt focus on one work area?
Yes. Name the work area in the plain-language instruction so the summary stays relevant.
