Action

Why this helps
Teams approve changes in Slack but the actual character update waits in a backlog.
- Shortens approval to execution time
- Keeps the approval signal visible
- Reduces forgotten small updates
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slackbot and Convolo ai once in Notis
- 2Create an automation for approval based character edits
- 3Tell Notis to update only the character and fields explicitly described in the reacted message
- 4Pick Message Reaction Added as the trigger and choose a report channel
- 5Test with one approved edit message
Questions about this workflow
Which reaction counts as approval?
Specify the exact team convention in the instruction, such as a single approval emoji.
What if the message lacks a character ID?
