Start Amplitude cohort exports from Slack

Start the right cohort export while the request is still visible to the team.

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

Request Amplitude Cohort

Get a single cohort by id and initiate download. this action allows you to: - request a specific cohort from amplitude - optionally include user properties in the response - start the asynchronous download process key features: - supports filtering by specific user properties - returns a request id used for polling status and downloading - supports eu data residency

Why this helps

Export requests get delayed when someone must copy a cohort ID into Amplitude manually.

  • Reduces export turnaround time
  • Creates a traceable request ID
  • Keeps export context with the original request

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Amplitude in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Cohort export requester.
  • 3Tell Notis to start an Amplitude cohort export only for an approved channel request, using the named cohort and requested user properties.
  • 4Pick Channel Message Received as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one approved request.

Questions about this workflow

Can it include user properties?

Yes. Ask Notis to include only the properties named in the request.

Does this wait for the download to finish?

No. It starts the asynchronous request and reports the request ID.
