Notis

Retrieve an existing visual from Slack

Post a generated asset ID in a Slack channel and have Notis retrieve the corresponding image for the run report.

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 HTML to Image

Tool to retrieve a generated image by its ID. Use when you need to fetch, resize, or download an existing HTML to image asset.

Why this helps

A generated asset is difficult to reuse when its ID is buried in a message and nobody fetches the file.

  • Fetch an existing image using its shared ID.
  • Make the retrieved asset easier for the team to access.
  • Avoid recreating a visual that already exists.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Html to image to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis using plain language.
  • 3Give one instruction to retrieve the existing Html to image asset when a Slack message includes its ID.
  • 4Select Channel Message Received and choose where run reports should appear.
  • 5Test with one real asset ID and verify the retrieved image.

Questions about this workflow
