Retrieve repository details from Slack DMs

Ask in a DM and get the repository context you need without opening another tool.

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 Repository

Tool to retrieve details of a specific Docker Hub repository. Use after confirming namespace and repository name.

Why this helps

Important repository questions get delayed when details are scattered across Slack and Docker Hub.

  • Keeps private requests private
  • Returns repository metadata quickly
  • Avoids repetitive manual searches

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Docker Hub once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named DM repository details.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Docker Hub repository named in each DM and summarize its returned details.
  • 4Pick direct message received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test it with one real repository name.

Questions about this workflow

What if the DM omits the namespace?
