Look up Vision product details from a Slack DM
A private request for a product record can trigger a lookup, giving the requester a faster answer and keeping the investigation from slipping away.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Get Product
Tool to get information associated with a Product. Use when you have the product resource name and need its details.
Why this helps
Small catalog questions often become lingering tasks when the product resource name is not checked immediately.
- Handle a specific catalog lookup at the point of request.
- Avoid switching tools just to confirm a product record's details.
- Give Notis a clear resource name to retrieve.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Google Cloud Vision to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally to look up a Vision Product when a Slack DM requests it.
- 3Describe the lookup and how the product resource name will be identified in one plain-language instruction.
- 4Choose the Slack direct-message trigger, a channel for run reports, and test with a real product lookup request.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create or change a product?
No. Get Product retrieves details for an existing resource.
Can it answer requests without a resource name?
The action requires the product resource name. The instruction should explain how the message provides or identifies it.
