Create Discord roles for new workstreams
Make new project ownership visible from day one.
Trigger
New Channel Created Trigger
Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.
Action
Create role with guild id
Creates a new role in a discord guild with customizable name, permissions, color, hoist, mentionability, and icon; `icon` (custom image hash) and `unicode emoji` (standard emoji) are mutually exclusive.
Why this helps
New workstreams start without a consistent Discord role for mentions and access planning.
- Standardize project roles
- Improve discoverability
- Reduce setup overhead
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slackbot and Discordbot once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation that creates a Discord role named for the new Slack workstream.
- 3Pick New Channel Created as the trigger.
- 4Choose a report channel and test by creating one Slack workstream channel.
Questions about this workflow
Can the role include a color?
Yes. Include the preferred role color and mentionability in the instruction.
Does creating a role assign it to members?
No. This action creates the role; assignment needs a separate workflow.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Slackbot to Discordbot. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Slackbot triggers
Discordbot actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add recipient to group channel
Adds a user to a discord group direct message (dm) channel.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Update guild member information
Adds a user (who is not already a member) to a guild using their `access token` (which must have `guilds.join` scope), optionally setting nickname, roles, mute/deaf status, or flags.
New Channel Created Trigger
Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.
Assign role to guild member
Assigns a role to a guild member, provided the bot has 'manage roles' permission in the guild and the role to be assigned is hierarchically lower than the bot's highest role.
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Add reaction to message
Adds an emoji reaction from the authenticated user/bot to a specific message in a discord channel; does not return information about existing reactions.
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Add or update thread member
Adds a user to a specific, unarchived thread; the user must have access to the thread's parent channel, and for private threads, the bot must already be a member.
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Modify guild ban settings
Permanently bans a user from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages (specify deletion period in seconds or days, not both).
Message Reaction Removed
Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Bulk ban users in guild with message deletion option
Bans up to 200 users from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages; the bot must have 'ban members' permission in the guild, and this action is irreversible.
Reaction Added Trigger
DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_ADDED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack.
Bulk delete messages in channel
Atomically bulk deletes messages in a discord channel for moderation or maintenance; deletion may not be instantaneous and messages are unrecoverable.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
