List GTmetrix simulated devices from a DM

Turn a direct question about device options into a current list of profiles, ready for the next testing decision.

Trigger

Action

Get Simulated Devices

Why this helps

Device choices are easy to postpone when looking them up means opening another tool and rebuilding context.

  • Surface device choices at the moment they are needed.
  • Keep planning inside the existing DM thread.
  • Avoid a manual search through available profiles.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and GTmetrix to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to list available GTmetrix simulated devices for relevant DMs.
  • 3Use one plain-language instruction to describe which questions need the device list and how to present it.
  • 4Select Direct Message Received, choose a run-report channel, and test with a real request.

Questions about this workflow

Does the action return the details of each profile?

Get Simulated Devices lists available simulated device profiles. Get Simulated Device retrieves details for a specific profile.

Can a follow-up inspect one listed device?

Ask Notis to look up a particular profile in a separate request or use a workflow designed for profile details.
