Review available probes when setting up a channel

A new incident or infrastructure channel is a useful moment to surface the probe inventory the team can use for network checks.

Trigger

New Channel Created Trigger

Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.

Action

List Probes

Tool to list all currently connected probes. Use after authenticating with the API to retrieve online probe metadata.

Why this helps

Runbooks often begin without a clear view of which measurement probes are currently available.

  • Surface current probe metadata during channel setup.
  • Give the team context for future distributed measurements.
  • Reduce a separate manual discovery step when preparing a runbook.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Globalping to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with one prompt to list currently connected Globalping probes when a new channel is created for operations or incident work.
  • 3Select New Channel Created and choose the channel where run reports should appear.
  • 4Test by creating a real operations channel.

Questions about this workflow

Does this start a network measurement?

No. It lists currently connected probe metadata so the team can review available probes.

Should every new channel trigger it?

Describe in the prompt that the channel should be for operations or incident work, since the event fires when a channel is created.
