Notis

Inspect Docker Hub images from private Slack requests

Get image detail without breaking concentration or exposing the request in a channel.

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

Get Docker Hub Image

Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific image within a Docker Hub repository. Use after confirming namespace, repository name, and image ID. Example: GET_IMAGE(namespace="library", repository="ubuntu", image_id="sha256:...")

Why this helps

Image debugging takes longer when details require a separate lookup and copy paste cycle.

  • Keeps sensitive checks private
  • Returns specific image information
  • Speeds troubleshooting

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Docker Hub once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named DM image detail inspection.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve detailed Docker Hub image information for the namespace, repository, and image ID in the DM.
  • 4Pick direct message received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test it with one known image ID.

Questions about this workflow

What identifiers are required?

The request should include the namespace, repository, and image ID.

Can it inspect an image by tag?

Use the tag detail workflow when the request identifies a tag instead of an image ID.
