Follow up on a search drop from Slack
Move from a reported decline to a Search Console query while the context and the people who noticed it are still in the thread.
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
Search Analytics Query
Queries google search console for search analytics data including clicks, impressions, ctr, and position metrics.
Why this helps
A search decline can prompt scattered questions and repeated checks when the initial report is not connected to a data lookup.
- Give a reported decline a prompt data check.
- Keep investigation context in the Slack discussion.
- Reduce the mental load of remembering to verify the concern.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Google Search Console to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up conversationally.
- 3Describe in one instruction how to query Search Console when a message reports a search decline.
- 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real message describing a site, page, or query and the period to examine.
Questions about this workflow
Does it diagnose the cause of a decline?
The provided action queries Search Console performance data; it does not independently establish a cause.
Can I ask about a page or search query?
State the intended page or search context in Slack and the instruction can ask Notis to query the relevant metrics.
