Find duplicate records from a Slack DM
Ask privately for a duplicate check and get the suspicious records quickly.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Execute Code
Execute python code in a sandbox and return any result, stdout, stderr, and error. use /home/user folder to write/read files. try to not use plt.show() as the code is executed remotely. use files for image/chart output instead.
Why this helps
Duplicate cleanup is easy to defer until it affects reporting or billing.
- Catches reporting errors earlier
- Returns concrete duplicate examples
- Reduces manual spreadsheet review
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slackbot and Codeinterpreter once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation for duplicate record checks.
- 3Tell Notis to inspect the named dataset using the requested identifying columns and return counts plus representative duplicate groups.
- 4Pick Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose where reports go.
- 5Test with one real duplicate check request.
Questions about this workflow
Can it choose the matching columns?
Name the columns in the DM or ask Notis to suggest candidates and state its choice.
Does it delete duplicates?
This workflow reports duplicates; any deletion should be requested separately and explicitly.

Create Sandbox
Create a sandbox to execute python code in a jupyter notebook cell. this is useful for agents to communicate, execute code, see output, read files, write files, etc. it's like you own personal computer, but in the cloud. use /home/user folder to write/read files.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Execute Code
