Turn Slack segment requests into Faraday cohorts
Move a clearly described audience segment from team discussion into Faraday cohort setup without a separate manual handoff.
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
Create Cohorts
Tool to create a new cohort in Faraday. Cohorts are groups of people that share certain traits or behaviors. Use when you need to define a new cohort from your datasets or from Faraday's US Consumer Graph. At least one of stream_name, traits, or place_conditions must be provided.
Why this helps
Audience ideas discussed in Slack often need repeated clarification before anyone turns them into a usable cohort.
- Keep the audience rationale alongside the original discussion.
- Reduce the chance a segment request stalls in a channel.
- Let Notis interpret the cohort intent from plain language.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Faraday to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Write one instruction asking Notis to create a Faraday cohort when a Slack message clearly describes a new audience segment.
- 4Select the Slack channel-message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real segment request and inspect the resulting cohort in Faraday.
Questions about this workflow
What should the Slack request include?
Include enough context to describe the intended group, such as relevant traits, a stream, or place conditions; Faraday requires at least one of those inputs.
Will casual audience discussion create a cohort?
State that only explicit cohort requests should trigger the action, then validate that instruction with a real example.
