Approve Insighto intent ideas with Slack reactions

Action

Create Intent

Tool to create a new intent in insighto.ai. use when adding custom intents before training or deployment. call after confirming intent attributes.

Why this helps

Small approval decisions get buried when a team has to remember to follow up after discussing an intent idea.

  • Make intent approval visible at the point of discussion.
  • Reduce follow-up messages for small decisions.
  • Turn a clear team signal into the next setup step.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Insighto ai to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis which reaction should mean an intent is approved.
  • 3Write one instruction to create the proposed Insighto intent only when the designated reaction is added to a message with clear intent details.
  • 4Select Slack Message Reaction Added as the trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
  • 5Test by adding the chosen reaction to one real intent proposal.

Questions about this workflow

Can any reaction trigger creation?

Specify one designated reaction and require clear intent details in the reacted-to message.

What if the reaction is removed?

This workflow responds to a reaction being added; it does not reverse a created intent when a reaction is removed.
