Notis

Answer folder structure questions from Slack DMs

Avoid turning a quick question into a search session. Notis can retrieve your Jotform folders when someone asks where forms are organized.

Trigger

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

Action

Get User Folders

Tool to retrieve a list of folders created by the authenticated user. use when you need to enumerate user folders after confirming valid api credentials.

Why this helps

A simple folder question can interrupt focused work while you navigate to another app.

  • Resolve folder questions with less app switching.
  • Keep the request and the lookup tied together.
  • Share a concise folder reference through run reports.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Jotform to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis the outcome you want.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the Jotform folder list when a DM asks about form organization and report it.
  • 4Select Direct Message Received and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a real DM asking about a folder.
