Turn a Slack coordinate list into addresses
When a channel contains a set of location coordinates, resolve them in one batch instead of one lookup at a time.
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
Batch Reverse Geocode
Tool to batch reverse geocode up to 10,000 coordinates in one request. Use when you need addresses for many lat/lon pairs.
Why this helps
Repeated location checks create tedious work and make it harder to keep a batch task moving.
- Process up to 10,000 coordinate pairs in one request.
- Reduce repeated single-coordinate lookups.
- Keep a batch research task attached to its Slack source.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Geocodio once through the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up in plain language.
- 3Write one instruction asking Notis to collect the relevant coordinate pairs from Slack and batch reverse geocode them.
- 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a small real set of coordinate pairs before using a larger batch.
