Find a requested GageList attachment from Slack

When a Slack message identifies the needed attachment, Notis can retrieve it from GageList.

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 Attachment

Tool to retrieve an attachment by its ID. Use when you need to download file attachments from the system.

Why this helps

Finding a specific supporting file can mean searching both the conversation and the equipment system.

  • Shorten the path from document request to retrieved file.
  • Reduce repeat searches across chat and equipment records.
  • Keep follow-up moving when someone needs an existing attachment.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and GageList to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to handle the request in plain language.
  • 3Write one instruction to retrieve an attachment only when Slack clearly identifies which file is needed.
  • 4Choose the Slack channel-message trigger and run-report channel, then test with one real request for a known attachment.

Questions about this workflow

Does this upload or change an attachment?

No. This workflow retrieves an existing attachment from GageList.

What if the attachment is not identified?
