Keep source links alongside founder notes
When a founder shares a thought with an article link in Slack, save the source in Goodbits so the idea can be revisited with its context.
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
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
A useful founder insight can outlive the Slack conversation, but the source link is easy to lose.
- Preserves source material behind a shared idea.
- Supports later review without rereading old channels.
- Keeps newsletter research connected to real references.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Goodbits to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis for it conversationally.
- 3Use one instruction to add external article URLs shared alongside founder notes in your selected channel to Goodbits.
- 4Choose the Slack channel-message trigger, select the run-report channel, and test with one source link.
Questions about this workflow
Will the founder note itself be published?
No. The Goodbits action adds a link to its content library; it does not publish the note.
Can it ignore messages without links?
State in the instruction that a message must contain an external article URL to be added.
