Notis

Check for a prospect before creating a contact

Make one quick search part of prospect capture so existing work stays easy to find.

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

Search Contacts

Tool to search for contacts by filters. Use when you need to find contacts matching specific criteria.

Why this helps

A lead can be entered more than once when teammates cannot tell whether it is already in the contact workspace.

  • Surface possible existing contacts before a new record is created.
  • Reduce duplicate cleanup later.
  • Help teammates build on research already captured.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and GetProspect to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation prompt to search contacts by the prospect details in a message that explicitly proposes adding that prospect.
  • 3Choose Slack Channel Message Received and a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with a prospect proposal and inspect the matching contact results.

Questions about this workflow

Does a search automatically create a contact?

No. This workflow searches contacts only. Review results before deciding whether a separate contact-creation step is needed.

Which details should Notis search with?

Describe in the prompt the prospect details included in the message, such as a name or email, and instruct it to search only on a clear capture proposal.
