Send the customer next step your team already agreed on
When the team confirms a customer-facing next step in Slack, have Notis send that approved response in the matching Intercom conversation.
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

Sends a reply to an existing conversation in intercom
Why this helps
A settled next step can remain in internal discussion, leaving the customer waiting for a clear update.
- Shorten the gap between internal agreement and customer update
- Reduce repeated copying between tools
- Keep the agreed response in the conversation history
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Intercom to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation or ask Notis to reply in the matching Intercom conversation only when the customer-facing next step is clearly approved in Slack.
- 3Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one real approved next step and confirm the reply is sent to the intended conversation.
Questions about this workflow
Can this send an unreviewed suggestion?
Specify a clear approval condition and instruct Notis to skip suggestions or drafts that have not been approved.
What if the intended conversation is unclear?
Ask Notis to report uncertainty and send nothing until it can confidently identify the matching conversation.
