Help teammates choose the right crypto category
Turn vague tracking requests into filters the calendar can actually use.
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 Event Categories
Tool to list all event categories. Use when you need to fetch available event categories.
Why this helps
Research requests lose time when nobody knows which event category matches the question.
- Clarify research intent quickly
- Use the calendar's real category vocabulary
- Reduce back and forth in DMs
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slackbot and Coinmarketcal once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation named DM event category helper.
- 3Describe that each DM asking what crypto event type to track should retrieve CoinMarketCal categories and recommend the closest categories with a short explanation.
- 4Pick Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose a report destination.
- 5Test it with one real DM describing a research goal.
Questions about this workflow
Does it decide which category is correct?
It can recommend likely matches while clearly showing the available categories for human confirmation.
Can it search events after the answer?
This workflow only lists categories; a follow-up automation can use the selected category for event retrieval.
