Remove a retired reference image record
A confirmed image retirement in Slack can prompt Notis to delete the corresponding Vision ReferenceImage 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
Delete Reference Image
Tool to permanently delete a reference image. Use when you have confirmed the reference image's resource name.
Why this helps
Image records can remain in a catalog after the team has decided they should no longer be used.
- Tie image-record cleanup to its confirmed retirement decision.
- Reduce follow-up work after an image is withdrawn.
- Keep the specific resource name close to the request.
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 delete a Vision reference image after its confirmed retirement in Slack.
- 3Write one instruction requiring the full ReferenceImage resource name and explicit confirmation.
- 4Choose the Slack channel-message trigger, a report channel, and test with a non-destructive example before a live deletion.
Questions about this workflow
Does this delete the source image file?
The action deletes the ReferenceImage resource; it does not claim to remove a source file stored elsewhere.
Can it act on a general request to clean images?
The instruction should require a clearly identified resource and confirmed retirement.
