Why this helps

People lose time switching tools to confirm whether a learner exists.

  • Speed up learner support
  • Reduce repeated searches
  • Keep requests in one channel

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Coassemble in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named DM User Enrollment Check.
  • 3Tell Notis to search Coassemble users using the learner details in each DM and summarize relevant matches.
  • 4Pick Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose where reports go.
  • 5Test with one real learner lookup DM.

Questions about this workflow

Will it search every DM?

Yes. The direct message event catches new DMs across all DM channels.

Can it confirm enrollment status?

User records alone may not include progress or enrollment details; ask Notis to identify missing data or use a tracking workflow.
