Make work order reviews easier to begin
When someone asks for a work order check in Slack, Notis can retrieve the JobNimbus work order list.
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
List Work Orders
Tool to retrieve all work orders (v2). use after authentication when you need a paginated list of work orders.
Why this helps
Work order reviews can get pushed aside when finding the current list requires another manual step.
- Turn a Slack request into a ready work order overview.
- Reduce setup effort for job planning discussions.
- Help the team focus on reviewing work rather than locating it.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and JobNimbus to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation through the portal or by telling Notis what it should do.
- 3In one plain-language instruction, ask Notis to list JobNimbus work orders when a Slack channel message clearly requests a work order review.
- 4Select the Slack channel message trigger and choose where to receive run reports.
- 5Test with one real message that explicitly asks for the work order list.
