When a Canadian address matters to a conversation, retrieve its provincial electoral district in the same 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

Append Canadian Provincial Electoral District

Tool to append Canadian provincial electoral district to geocode results. Use when you need the provincial riding for a Canadian address.

Why this helps

Remembering to check provincial boundaries later can turn a quick location question into an unfinished follow-up.

  • Append the provincial electoral district to a geocoded Canadian address.
  • Keep boundary research attached to the original discussion.
  • Avoid a separate lookup and return trip to Slack.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Geocodio once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in Automations or ask Notis for one conversationally.
  • 3Write one instruction asking Notis to geocode a Canadian address shared in a channel and append its provincial electoral district.
  • 4Select the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real Canadian address where provincial riding information is relevant.
