Why this helps
Form links are hard to find when you're juggling conversations and tasks.
- Find the right form without searching old messages.
- Keep the request and answer in one conversation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Fillout forms to Notis once in the portal.
- 2In the portal, create an automation and describe: when a DM asks for a Fillout form, retrieve the form list and reply with matching options.
- 3Select Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test by DMing Notis with a request for a form you know exists.
Questions about this workflow
Does this search form submissions?
No. The available Fillout action retrieves your forms, not their submissions.
Can it respond in the DM?
The instruction can ask Notis to answer in Slack with matching forms from the retrieved list.
