Check CoinMarketCal coverage from a Slack DM
Resolve support questions before someone builds a research plan around the wrong source.
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
List Coins
Tool to retrieve list of all available coins/cryptocurrencies in CoinMarketCal database. Use when you need to fetch coin information including IDs, names, symbols, and event counts.
Why this helps
People waste time planning event monitoring for projects that may not exist in the calendar database.
- Confirm source coverage quickly
- Set realistic research expectations
- Return identifiers and event counts in one answer
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slackbot and Coinmarketcal once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation named DM coin coverage check.
- 3Describe that each DM asking whether a project is supported should search the CoinMarketCal coin list and return matching names, symbols, identifiers, and event counts.
- 4Pick Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose where reports should go.
- 5Test it with one DM asking about a known project.
Questions about this workflow
What if the project has multiple records?
Ask the automation to list the possible matches and explain which details differ.
Does a coin record guarantee upcoming events?
No. It only confirms the coin record and any returned event count; use the event action for date-specific results.
