Fetch email evidence from a Slack DM

Give teammates the exact email details they need without interrupting a separate inbox search.

Trigger

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

Action

Get Message

Why this helps

Evidence requests arrive in DMs while the supporting email is buried elsewhere.

  • Returns source wording quickly
  • Reduces back-and-forth questions
  • Keeps evidence tied to the request

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Agent mail in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for DM evidence requests.
  • 3Describe how to identify and present the requested Agent mail message.
  • 4Choose Direct Message Received and select a report channel.
  • 5Test with one DM that references a real email.
