Check a background before using it
Use a Slack request and known background ID to retrieve the matching Intelliprint background details.
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
Retrieve Background
Tool to retrieve a specific Background by ID. Use when you need background details before further processing.
Why this helps
Unclear background names or ownership can lead to another round of searching before a print document is ready.
- Confirm the referenced background before document preparation.
- Reduce back-and-forth about which asset a teammate means.
- Keep the lookup beside the relevant Slack request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Intelliprint to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in a conversation.
- 3Describe in one plain-language instruction that a Slack request with a specific background ID should retrieve its details.
- 4Choose Slack Channel Message Received as the trigger and set a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one known background ID.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis infer an unknown background ID?
The prompt should require a specific known ID or ask for clarification instead of guessing.
Does this make changes to the background?
No. It retrieves background details without changing the background.
