Action
List Media Types
Tool to get available media types. Use when you need to retrieve all or filtered media types after authentication.
Why this helps
When media options are not easy to recall, people pause the work or repeatedly ask the same teammate.
- Make a recurring reference easier to request.
- Reduce interruptions for teammates who know the catalog.
- Support a more informed print setup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and FinerWorks to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations or ask Notis conversationally to set it up.
- 3Give one instruction to retrieve available or specifically requested FinerWorks media types when asked in Slack.
- 4Select Channel Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports appear.
- 5Test with one real message asking for a media-type reference.
