Retrieve subscriber records from a Slack DM
Handle small subscriber lookup requests without letting a private message become another task to remember.
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
List Subscribers
Tool to list newsletter subscribers. Use when you need to retrieve subscribers with optional field selection, sorting, and pagination.
Why this helps
A subscriber check sent privately can be easy to postpone while switching between tools and conversations.
- Turns a DM request into a concrete list lookup.
- Keeps the response connected to a private request.
- Reduces manual effort for recurring subscriber questions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Hotspotsystem to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to retrieve HotspotSystem newsletter subscribers when a Slack DM requests the list.
- 3Choose Slack Direct Message Received as the trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with a subscriber request sent in a direct message.
