- 5Choose a report channel and test by reacting to one real reading.
Questions about this workflow
Can I choose which reaction counts as approval?
Yes, state the approved emoji in the plain-language instruction and use the reaction trigger's optional filtering.
What happens to reactions on unrelated messages?
Notis can ignore messages without a valid reading and report why no update was made.
