Keep ImageKit tags aligned with Slack asset notes
Capture useful labels from the conversation and add them to the right ImageKit asset while the context is fresh.
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
Update File Details
Tool to update details of a file. Use when you need to modify tags, coordinates, metadata, or extensions on an ImageKit asset.
Why this helps
Asset labels are often postponed until later, when the project context and naming details are harder to recall.
- Turns clear asset labeling instructions into updated ImageKit details.
- Makes campaign and project assets easier to find later.
- Avoids a separate metadata cleanup session.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and ImageKit io to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to create one in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to update tags only when a channel message identifies the ImageKit asset and gives explicit labels.
- 4Choose the channel-message-received Slack trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a message about a known asset and check its ImageKit details.
Questions about this workflow
Will every message change asset tags?
The instruction should limit updates to messages that identify an asset and explicitly request labels.
Can this update other file details too?
This workflow uses the file-details update action. State clearly which details Notis should change.
