Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Slack to Formsite. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Slack triggers
Formsite actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Get Form Details
This tool retrieves detailed information about a specific form in formsite. it provides comprehensive details including the form's internal description, directory identifier, name, publishing information (embed code and form link), current state (e.g., "open"), and statistics (file size and number of results).
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get Form Items
This tool retrieves all items (questions) for a specific form using the get https://{server}.formsite.com/api/v2/{user dir}/forms/{form dir}/items endpoint. it is an independent action that only requires the form directory (obtainable via formsite list all forms) to retrieve the structure and details such as item ids, question types, text, answer choices, required status, and other properties.
New Channel Created Trigger
Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.
Get Form Results
This tool retrieves the latest form results from a specified formsite form. it uses the get https://{server}.formsite.com/api/v2/results/latest endpoint to fetch results independently, handling required parameters such as form id, limit, page, and sort direction without referring to external resource ids.
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Get Form Webhooks
This tool retrieves all webhooks configured for a specific form in formsite. it uses the get https://{server}.formsite.com/api/v2/{user dir}/forms/{form dir}/webhooks endpoint to fetch webhook configurations, including url, status, settings, and triggers.
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
List All Forms
This tool retrieves a list of all forms in the user's formsite account. it provides essential information such as form id, form name, form directory, creation date, last modified date, status, access level, and other metadata. it serves as a foundational tool for further operations.
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Message Reaction Removed
Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Reaction Added Trigger
DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_ADDED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack.
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
You · in the Notis Builder
NEW“When a row gets added to the Q4 OKRs Notion database and the status is Blocked, send a Telegram message to the owner with a summary of what's blocking, and ping me if there's no reply within 24 hours.”
