Close the loop on a retired ImageKit field

When the team has made a definite decision to remove an unused field, capture the exact administrative follow-up.

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

Delete Custom Metadata Field

Tool to delete a custom metadata field. Use when you have the field ID and need to permanently remove the metadata schema field. Call after confirming irreversible deletion.

Why this helps

A confirmed cleanup decision can linger in chat, leaving an outdated field in the asset library indefinitely.

  • Carries a clearly approved schema retirement into the system.
  • Requires an exact field identifier in the request.
  • Closes a lingering cleanup task after the decision is made.

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 delete a custom metadata field only when the message explicitly confirms the decision and gives its field ID.
  • 4Choose the channel-message-received Slack trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test the instruction using a non-production example and verify that ambiguous requests are skipped.

Questions about this workflow

Is field deletion reversible?

The action permanently deletes a metadata schema field, so the instruction should require an explicit final decision and exact field ID.

Can this remove field values from files?

This action deletes the custom metadata field definition. Use the ImageKit product documentation to understand effects on associated data before configuring it.
