Find a Stripe customer from a Slack DM

Use the email already in the conversation to locate the right Stripe customer record.

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

List customers

Retrieves a list of stripe customers, with options to filter by email, creation date, or test clock, and support for pagination.

Why this helps

Customer support slows down when a teammate has to copy an email into a separate billing search.

  • Search for a customer using an email from the DM.
  • Review matching customer records before taking follow-up action.
  • Cut down on copy and paste between Slack and Stripe.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slackbot and Stripe once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to find the email in a Slack DM, list matching Stripe customers, and summarize the results.
  • 4Pick Direct Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with a real DM containing an email address used in Stripe.

Questions about this workflow

Will it create a customer if none is found?

No. It lists existing customers that match the email.

Should the message include a customer ID instead?

An email is suitable for this list action. Use a customer ID when retrieving a specific customer record.
