Mark a Slack message to request a Felt map update

A simple reaction can flag a location detail for map follow-up without creating another task list.

Trigger

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

Create or Update Elements

Tool to create new elements or update existing elements on a map via geojson featurecollection. use when you need to batch add or modify elements on a specified map after confirming the map id.

Why this helps

People often spot a map correction during discussion but forget to carry it over after the conversation moves on.

  • Creates a low-friction way to flag mappable corrections.
  • Keeps review requests connected to the original Slack discussion.
  • Avoids relying on a separate manual reminder.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Felt to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to update a Felt map when a Slack message receives your chosen reaction.
  • 3Write one plain-language instruction that explains which reaction signals a map update and how to use the message context.
  • 4Pick the Slack reaction-added trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Add the reaction to one real location correction and inspect the map.

Questions about this workflow

Can any reaction trigger the workflow?

The reaction-added event supports optional channel and emoji filtering; describe the intended signal in the automation prompt.

Will reacting to any conversation change the map?

The instruction should limit changes to reactions on messages with actionable location information relevant to the specified map.
