Update manufacturer details from Slack handoffs

When a trusted Slack update clearly identifies a manufacturer and a changed detail, Notis can update that GageList entry.

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

Update Manufacturer

Tool to update a manufacturer by its ID. Use after confirming the manufacturer exists.

Why this helps

Contact changes often reach the team in chat but remain stale in the system everyone relies on.

  • Reduce stale manufacturer contact information.
  • Close the loop on clear supplier updates while they are fresh.
  • Avoid maintaining the same change in multiple places by hand.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and GageList to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis in any channel.
  • 3Give Notis one instruction to update the matching manufacturer only when a Slack message clearly identifies the record and the new information.
  • 4Choose the Slack channel-message trigger and the run-report channel, then test with one real contact update.

Questions about this workflow

How does it know which manufacturer to update?

The instruction should require an unambiguous manufacturer match and enough information to identify the intended change.

Should every supplier mention update a record?

No. Limit the instruction to explicit change notices, not general discussion.
