Get a Heyzine publication list from a direct message
When a team member requests a flipbook inventory in Slack DM, retrieve the account's Heyzine list and report it.
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
Get Flipbook List
Tool to retrieve all flipbooks. Use when you need to list every flipbook for the authenticated account.
Why this helps
A quick inventory request can turn into a tab-switching task and make it hard to return to focused work.
- Retrieve the account's current flipbook list on request.
- Handle a small lookup without interrupting a focused task.
- Return the inventory through the chosen run-report channel.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Heyzine to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Ask Notis to retrieve the Heyzine flipbook list when you receive a direct Slack request for an inventory.
- 3Pick Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
- 4Test by sending one real inventory request in a Slack DM.
Questions about this workflow
Does this inspect channel messages too?
No. This workflow uses the direct-message trigger, which catches DMs and does not represent a channel message trigger.
Can it summarize only a subset?
The listed action retrieves all flipbooks; the plain-language prompt can ask Notis to present relevant entries from the returned list.
