Convert Slack DMs into Dailybot private reminders

Move personal requests from Slack DMs into a reminder you can act on later.

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

Send Message

This tool allows sending a message through dailybot to either specific users or channels/rooms. the message can include markdown formatting.

Why this helps

Important one to one requests disappear inside long Slack DM histories.

  • Preserve the request without rereading the thread
  • Reduce mental load from open loops
  • Keep private context in a focused reminder

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Dailybot once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named DM Reminder Capture.
  • 3Tell Notis to extract the request, urgency, and requested outcome, then send a private Dailybot reminder.
  • 4Pick Slackbot Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose where reports go.
  • 5Test it with one real DM request.
