  • Makes endorsed items easier to inspect
  • Reduces repeated searching
  • Returns current record context

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Appdrag in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation that queries the matching Appdrag row when the chosen reaction is added and summarizes the result.
  • 3Pick Message Reaction Added as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one endorsed message.
