Check ticket details from the Slack conversation
A ticket number in chat should not send you on a manual search. Retrieve its Freshservice details as part of the workflow.
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 Freshservice Ticket
Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific ticket by ID. Use when you need to get full details of a ticket including its status, priority, requester, and other attributes.
Why this helps
Looking up ticket context interrupts the conversation and adds another small task to keep in mind.
- Bring ticket details into a Slack-triggered workflow.
- Reduce manual searching across tools.
- Respond with better context about status and priority.

- 1Connect Slack and Freshservice to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation or ask Notis to retrieve a Freshservice ticket when its ID appears in a Slack channel message.
- 3Pick the Slack channel message trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one real message that includes a known Freshservice ticket ID.
