Give selected places the detailed location context needed for planning and reporting.

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

Get NZ Location Metadata

Tool to retrieve full metadata for a New Zealand location selected from the Location Autocomplete API. Use when you need detailed information including coordinates and LINZ address data for a specific location.

Why this helps

A location name alone may not provide enough detail for an operational decision.

  • Add coordinates and LINZ data
  • Reduce repeated location research
  • Make Slack based decisions more precise

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Addressfinder once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that retrieves metadata for selected NZ location IDs found in channel messages.
  • 3Pick the Slack Channel Message Received trigger.
  • 4Choose a report destination.
  • 5Test with one real selected location ID.
