Fetch transaction details from a Slack message
When someone asks about one payment, Notis can look up the matching Flutterwave transaction and report what it finds.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Get Transaction
Tool to retrieve details of a specific transaction by id. use after obtaining the transaction id to fetch its details from flutterwave.
Why this helps
Specific payment questions can interrupt focused work while you locate the transaction and reply manually.
- Handle a one-transaction lookup without a broad history search.
- Keep the request and report connected.
- Ask for an identifier if the Slack message is ambiguous.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Flutterwave to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation using the portal or a plain-language request to Notis.
- 3Write one prompt to fetch a Flutterwave transaction only when the Slack message provides a clear transaction identifier, then report the relevant details.
- 4Select the Slack channel message trigger, choose a reporting channel, and test with one known transaction.
Questions about this workflow
What if the transaction identifier is missing?
Tell Notis to ask for the identifier rather than guess which transaction is meant.
Does the lookup change transaction status?
No. It retrieves details for the specified transaction.
