Trigger

New Channel Created Trigger

Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.

Action

List Models

Tool to list currently available DeepSeek models and provides basic information about each one such as the owner and availability. Use when you need to discover which models are available for API calls.

Why this helps

AI workflow planning can rely on outdated assumptions about model availability.

  • Use current model availability
  • Reduce setup guesswork
  • Support better workflow planning

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and DeepSeek once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named New channel model check.
  • 3Describe that each new channel should trigger a current DeepSeek model availability report and a short recommendation for workflow planning.
  • 4Pick the New Channel Created trigger.
  • 5Choose where reports go, then test by creating one channel.

Questions about this workflow

Does this generate a response from a model?

No. It uses DeepSeek's List Models action to retrieve available models.

Can the report recommend one model?

Yes. Ask the automation to recommend based on the channel purpose you provide.
