Make editorial selection a one-reaction step
When an editor spots a newsletter-worthy link, a single agreed reaction can send it to the Goodbits library for review.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added

Action
Create Link
Tool to create a content link in Goodbits Content Library. Use when you have an article URL and optional metadata ready.
Why this helps
The handoff from a Slack recommendation to the editorial list relies on someone remembering a separate task.
- Turns an existing selection gesture into a curation handoff.
- Keeps the signal attached to the source message.
- Reduces missed additions during busy editorial weeks.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Goodbits to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation through the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, say to add the article URL from a Slack message when an editor applies the agreed selection reaction.
- 4Select the Slack message-reaction trigger, pick a run-report channel, and test with one selected article.
Questions about this workflow
Can different editors use the workflow?
Yes, provided the selected Slack reaction and instruction represent the team's shared selection signal.
What if an editor changes their mind?
This workflow handles the reaction-added event and adds the link; it does not remove a Goodbits link when a reaction is later removed.
