Answer crypto project DMs with event briefs

Give fast, grounded answers when a teammate asks what is coming up for a project.

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 Cryptocurrency Events

Tool to retrieve list of cryptocurrency events. Use when you need to fetch upcoming or past crypto events filtered by date range, coins, categories, or other criteria. Note: Cannot retrieve events before 25/11/2017. The can_occur_before field is important as some events may happen before their stated date.

Why this helps

DM requests for crypto dates create repeated research work and inconsistent answers.

  • Answer project questions with current event data
  • Keep responses short and decision ready
  • Avoid duplicate manual lookups

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Coinmarketcal once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named Project event DM brief.
  • 3Describe that each DM asking about a crypto project should trigger a CoinMarketCal event lookup and a concise answer with dates, event names, and categories.
  • 4Pick Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose where reports should go.
  • 5Test it with one real DM that asks about a known coin.

Questions about this workflow

Will it read channel messages too?

No. This workflow listens only for Direct Message Received events.

Can it provide investment advice?

It can summarize returned event data, but the automation should be instructed to avoid financial recommendations.
