Close schedule reviews when a Slack reaction is removed

Use reaction removal as a signal to check the latest profile schedules.

Trigger

Message Reaction Removed

Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

Action

Get Profile Schedules

Tool to list schedules associated with a specific profile. Use after confirming the profile ID.

Why this helps

Removing a reaction can signal completion, but the actual schedule check is often skipped.

  • Tie closure signals to verification
  • Keep schedule context current
  • Reduce missed configuration checks

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Control d in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named Schedule closure check.
  • 3Tell Notis to list schedules for the profile referenced by a message when the chosen reaction is removed.
  • 4Pick Message Reaction Removed, set channel or emoji filters if needed, and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test by removing one real reaction from a schedule discussion.

Questions about this workflow

Does reaction removal always mean a task is complete?

Not necessarily. Define the intended meaning in the automation prompt and review the report.

Can it update schedules?

No. It retrieves schedules for verification.
