Check Anonyflow after a Slack privacy alert

Confirm the privacy tool is ready while the team is already focused on the issue.

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

Test Connection

Tool to test the connection to the anonyflow api. use when verifying that the anonyflow service is reachable and operational before performing anonymization tasks. example: `testconnection().execute(testconnectionrequest())`

Why this helps

Privacy incidents lose time when the team discovers the remediation tool is unreachable only after escalation.

  • Speeds incident response
  • Confirms tool availability
  • Keeps the team aligned

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Anonyflow once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the connection check to run after a privacy alert.
  • 3Pick Channel Message Received as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one real alert message.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow inspect the alert content?

It can use the supplied message context to decide when to run, while the action itself tests connectivity.

Can this trigger from a DM?
