Refresh a Keen io value list when a Slack marker is removed

If clearing a reaction means a data question needs another look, have Notis fetch the current unique values for the named Keen io property.

Trigger

Message Reaction Removed

Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

Select Unique

Tool to return unique values for a target property. Use when distinct property values are required for matching events with optional filters and timeframe constraints.

Why this helps

A resolved or reopened data thread can leave people unsure whether an old value list is still current.

  • Refresh a data reference when a Slack marker changes.
  • Keep the follow-up attached to the message with the collection and property.
  • Reduce uncertainty about whether a previous lookup is still useful.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Keen io to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation through the portal or by asking Notis.
  • 3Use one instruction to retrieve unique Keen io values for the collection and property named in a message whenever its selected reaction is removed.
  • 4Select the reaction-removed Slack trigger and choose a run-report channel.
  • 5Test by removing the agreed reaction from a real message with a named property.

Questions about this workflow

Does removing any reaction trigger it?

The Slack trigger supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name; configure the intended reaction where available.

Is the prior value list overwritten?

The workflow retrieves current unique values and reports them; it does not modify Keen io data.
