Check env vars from Slack

Ask Notis in Slack to list your environment variables, and get a full inventory of project configurations across environments.

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 Environment Variables

Tool to list environment variables for a specific project. use when you need to inspect or page through the environment settings before deployment.

Why this helps

Managing environment variables across multiple environments requires navigating Vercel's settings repeatedly. Missing an env var often causes deployment failures.

  • Audit project configuration from Slack
  • Spot missing or misconfigured env vars
  • Prevent deployment failures from missing configs
  • Share configuration inventory with team

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Vercel to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named 'List Environment Variables'.
  • 3Set the trigger to 'Channel Message Received'.
  • 4Write the prompt: 'When someone asks to list environment variables, fetch all env vars from Vercel and show them in Slack.'
  • 5Choose your notification channel and test by posting 'Show me my environment variables'.

Questions about this workflow

Will Notis reveal secret values?

No, for security. Notis shows variable names and which environments they're set in, but hides secret values.

Can I see which env vars are missing?

Yes, compare against a checklist in your message. Notis can highlight missing variables.

Can I add or update env vars from this list?

No, but you can create a separate automation for adding/updating vars. This automation shows current state only.
