Answer OCR model questions from Slack DMs
A quick DM can trigger a fresh look at your Nano Nets OCR model inventory, so you do not have to stop and look it up manually.
Trigger

Action

Why this helps
When model inventory questions arrive in DMs, answering them can mean interrupting work to sign in and browse Nano Nets.
- Look up the available OCR models on demand.
- Cut down interruptions for routine inventory questions.
- Keep the response grounded in Nano Nets model data.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Nano Nets once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe in one instruction how to recognize OCR inventory questions and present the retrieved model list.
- 4Pick the Slack direct message trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real DM asking which OCR models are available.
Questions about this workflow
Will this work for channel messages too?
This workflow uses the direct message trigger, which catches DMs. Use a separate channel message trigger for requests posted in channels.
Does it show full model configuration?
The model list is paginated. For an individual model's full metadata, use the Nano Nets model details action in a separate workflow.
