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 Transfer Fee
Tool to retrieve the fee for initiating a transfer. use when you need to estimate transfer costs before creating a transfer. example: "calculate the fee for transferring ngn 5000 to an account."
Why this helps
Transfer cost estimates can get lost among manual checks and follow-up messages.
- Get a fee estimate without initiating a transfer.
- Reduce context switching during payout planning.
- Keep the result available in the selected report channel.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Flutterwave to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create a new automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one prompt to retrieve the Flutterwave transfer fee only for a complete request specifying the transfer amount and currency, and report the result without initiating a transfer.
- 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and run-report channel; test with one valid estimate request.
Questions about this workflow
Will this send a transfer?
No. It retrieves a fee estimate; it does not initiate a transfer.
What should happen if the amount or currency is missing?
Instruct Notis to ask for the missing details before looking up the fee.
