Know which messages need you first
Give incoming DMs a quick first pass so you can respond to what matters without treating every notification as equally urgent.
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
Create Chat Completion
Tool to generate a chat-based completion for a conversation. Use when you have a list of prior messages and need the model’s next reply.
Why this helps
A crowded inbox makes it hard to tell a real deadline from a message that can wait.
- Surface time-sensitive requests sooner.
- Distinguish questions from updates and FYIs.
- Spend less attention switching between messages.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Groqcloud to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation and instruct Groqcloud to classify each incoming DM by urgency, request type, and stated deadline.
- 3Select Slack Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with a real DM that has a clear request and one that is informational.
Questions about this workflow
Will it decide what I should reply?
This workflow classifies the DM. You can ask it to suggest a concise next action, while keeping the actual response under your control.
Can it infer a deadline?
Ask it to report only deadlines stated in the message and mark missing dates as unspecified.
