Make the AlgoDocs folder hierarchy easy to ask about

Folder structure questions should have a quick answer. Notis can retrieve the hierarchy and explain the branch relevant to the conversation.

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 folders

Tool to list folders. Use when you need to retrieve all folder IDs and their hierarchy. Must be called after obtaining an API key.

Why this helps

People hesitate to file documents when folder structure is difficult to discover.

  • Improves filing confidence
  • Uses current hierarchy data
  • Provides focused explanations

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Algodocs in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Channel folder hierarchy answer.
  • 3Tell Notis to read the question, list AlgoDocs folders, and explain the relevant hierarchy branch.
  • 4Pick Channel Message Received as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test it with one real hierarchy question.

Questions about this workflow

Can it show every folder?

Yes. The action lists the folders and their hierarchy for Notis to summarize.

Does it change the hierarchy?
