Add product reference images from Slack
A teammate shares a product image location and product name in Slack. Notis can use that context to create the corresponding reference image resource.
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 ReferenceImage
Tool to create a ReferenceImage under a product. Use when adding a new image to a product for detection.
Why this helps
Image intake details are easy to lose when they sit in busy launch channels instead of the visual catalog.
- Capture reference image intake from the conversation where it is announced.
- Keep product and image context together in the automation prompt.
- Reduce manual re-entry when a teammate shares a catalog-ready image.
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 in plain language to add announced product images as Vision reference images.
- 3Describe in one instruction how Notis should identify the product resource and image location from a Slack message.
- 4Pick the Slack channel-message trigger, a report channel, and test with one real image-intake message.
Questions about this workflow
Does this upload an image file from Slack?
The action creates a ReferenceImage resource. The prompt must provide an image source and product context that Google Cloud Vision can accept.
Will it run on every Slack message?
It is tied to the selected Slack channel-message trigger. Keep the instruction specific to messages announcing catalog-ready images.
