Grant Conveyor access from a Slack DM
Handle access requests without losing them in private messages.
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
Create new authorization
Tool to create a new authorization. Use when you need to grant access by email or from a prior authorization request.
Why this helps
Important access requests sit in DMs and require manual retyping into compliance tooling.
- Capture access requests promptly
- Reduce manual entry
- Keep an auditable automation instruction
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slackbot and Conveyor in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Grant Conveyor access from approved DMs.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Conveyor authorization only when the DM includes an explicit approval and a recipient email.
- 4Pick Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose where reports go.
- 5Test with one approved DM example.
Questions about this workflow
Will every DM create access?
No. Instruct Notis to require explicit approval and a valid recipient email.
Can I revoke access later?
Yes. Use a separate automation with Conveyor Patch authorization for a confirmed revocation.
