Check a GTmetrix test's progress from Slack
A Slack question about one test can trigger a focused status lookup, reducing the need to search through a broader list.
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
Get Test Details
Tool to retrieve test details for a specific GTMetrix test. Use when you need to check the status, configuration, or results of a previously initiated test.
Why this helps
When a single test is pending, searching across all activity adds extra decisions and distracts from follow-through.
- Check one test's state when someone asks.
- Retrieve configuration or results alongside status.
- Avoid scanning the full test list for a single item.
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 check a specific GTmetrix test after a Slack request.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction explaining how to identify the test and what status details to report.
- 4Select Channel Message Received, choose a run-report channel, and test with a real test-status question.
Questions about this workflow
How is this different from getting the test list?
Get Test Details focuses on a specific test. Get Tests retrieves a paginated list of tests.
Can this start a test if none exists?
No. This action checks an existing test; Start Test initiates a new run.
