Why this helps
Review preparation becomes harder when metrics are left until the meeting or scattered across dashboards.

- Reduces last-minute dashboard searches.
- Supports a more focused check-in on reach and profile activity.

- 1Connect Slack and Instagram to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation with a plain-language instruction to retrieve Instagram user insights when a Slack message requests account metrics for a review.
- 3Select the Slack channel-message trigger, choose where run reports appear, and test with a real review request.
