Check Carbon Offset Progress from a Slack Reaction
Mark a climate update with a reaction and let Notis retrieve the current Ecologi carbon offset total for a focused run report.
Trigger
Message Reaction Added
Triggers when someone adds a reaction to a message.
Action
Get User Carbon Offset
View a user's total avoided carbon emissions.
Why this helps
Climate updates are easy to acknowledge and then lose track of when the team needs a current offset figure.
- Start a lookup from a reaction on a message.
- Get the total tonnes of CO2e emissions avoided from Ecologi.
- Keep the result in a report without searching for the metric yourself.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slackbot and Ecologi once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Ecologi carbon offset total when a message receives the intended reaction, then summarize it in the run report.
- 4Pick Message Reaction Added as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test by adding the reaction to one real Slack message.
Questions about this workflow
Can I tell Notis which reaction to watch?
The trigger supports optional channel and emoji filtering. In the prompt-based Notis flow, users pick the trigger rather than building filters; keep the instruction aligned with the trigger configuration available to you.
Does this report carbon removal too?
No. This workflow retrieves carbon offset, meaning the total tonnes of CO2e emissions avoided. Use a separate carbon removal action for permanently removed CO2e.
Does adding the reaction change Ecologi funding?
No. The listed action only retrieves offset data.
