Turn a Slack reaction into form-finding help

Mark a message that needs a form, and let Notis bring back the available options.

Trigger

Message Reaction Added

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

Action

Get forms

Tool to retrieve a list of all forms in your account. use when you need to list your forms after authenticating with fillout.

Why this helps

People often notice a form-related task but lose track of it before finding the right form.

  • Capture a small request without composing a separate message.
  • Bring the available forms back to the conversation.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Fillout forms to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a plain-language instruction to retrieve and share Fillout forms when the selected reaction marks a message needing a form.
  • 3Select Message Reaction Added, then choose where run reports should go.
  • 4Test by adding the chosen reaction to a message asking for a known form.

Questions about this workflow

Can the reaction itself identify a specific form?

The action returns the form catalog. Ask Notis in the prompt to use the message context to identify relevant options.

Can I use this for any reaction?

Configure the trigger to use the chosen reaction where optional filtering is available.
