Notis

Clarify an unfamiliar currency code

Get a quick check on the symbol and currency name when someone asks privately about a code.

Trigger

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

Action

Get Supported Symbols

Tool to retrieve the list of all available currency symbols and their corresponding names. Use when you need to fetch and display supported currency codes.

Why this helps

A small terminology question can linger in a DM and delay a larger pricing decision.

  • Check codes against Fixer io's supported symbols.
  • Retrieve the corresponding currency name.
  • Keep private clarification requests from turning into unresolved follow-ups.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Fixer io to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to check currency symbols mentioned in DMs.
  • 3Write one instruction asking Notis to return the supported status and currency name for the code.
  • 4Choose Direct Message Received as the trigger, select a channel for run reports, and test with a code question.

Questions about this workflow

Does this provide exchange rates?

No. It checks supported symbols and corresponding currency names.

What if the message does not contain a code?

The instruction should ask for a symbol or code; a message without one may not provide enough information for a useful lookup.
