Ask for an event extras list in Slack

Keep a quick add-on lookup lightweight by starting it from a direct request.

Trigger

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

Action

List All Expo Extras

Tool to list all extras for an expo. use after obtaining a valid exporter api token and expo event id. example: "list all extras for event 2655."

Why this helps

Small information requests can become context switches when the answer lives in a separate event tool.

  • Start an extras lookup from a direct request.
  • Bring event details into the right planning moment.
  • Spend less time navigating between tools for a simple check.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Expofp to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation from the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3In one prompt, ask Notis to list extras for the expo named or clearly indicated in a Slack DM request.
  • 4Choose the Slack direct-message trigger and report channel, then test with one real extras question.

Questions about this workflow

Does the action change the extras list?

No. It lists the extras for an expo.

What if the DM does not identify an expo?

Include clear event context in the request so Notis can determine which expo to look up.
