Instant Trigger Reference When Planning Stack AI Automations
Your team discusses what automations to build but doesn't have a list of available triggers at hand. This automation listens to planning conversations in your team channel and posts all available Stack AI triggers, so ideas are grounded in what's actually possible.
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 Stack AI Triggers
Tool to list all available Stack AI tool triggers. Use when you need to discover what triggers are available in the Stack AI platform.
Why this helps
Team members propose automations based on incomplete knowledge of available triggers, leading to ideas that aren't feasible or discovering missed opportunities after conversations end.
- Ground automation discussions in actual available triggers from the start
- Spark ideas by exposing the full trigger catalog during planning
- Reduce post-conversation research and pivot back-and-forth
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Stack AI and Slack to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When someone mentions automation, workflow, or trigger in our team channel, post a reference list of all available Stack AI triggers to inspire and ground the conversation.'
- 3Set the trigger to 'Channel Message Received'.
- 4Choose the Slack channel where automation discussions happen.
- 5Notis will post trigger lists automatically when planning conversations start.
- 6Test by discussing 'What automations could we build?' and verify the trigger list appears.
Questions about this workflow
Will this post every time someone mentions automation?
You can refine the prompt to post only once per conversation thread or require keywords like 'what if' or 'we could' to keep noise down.
Can I customize the trigger list?
Yes. The automation can filter triggers by category (data, communication, monitoring, etc.) or highlight commonly-used triggers.
What if the list is long?
Notis can format it as a summary with expandable threads by category, keeping the main message scannable.
