Check a Vision reference image from Slack

A review request in Slack can prompt Notis to retrieve the metadata for the named Vision ReferenceImage, keeping the check close to the discussion.

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

Get Reference Image

Tool to get information associated with a ReferenceImage. Use when you have the full resource name and need its metadata.

Why this helps

Finding the right reference image record can interrupt focused review work and create avoidable back-and-forth.

  • Start a focused metadata check from the review conversation.
  • Avoid searching for the resource in another tool by hand.
  • Make image-record review easier to pick back up.

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 to retrieve Vision reference image details from Slack review requests.
  • 3Write one instruction explaining how the message identifies the full ReferenceImage resource name.
  • 4Select the Slack channel-message trigger, choose a report channel, and test with one real review request.

Questions about this workflow

Does this inspect image content?

No. Get Reference Image retrieves resource information; it does not perform OCR or visual analysis.

What does Notis need from Slack?

The instruction should make clear how to obtain the full ReferenceImage resource name from the message.
