Bring new Trello deadlines into your day
When a new card includes a date that needs attention, let Notis create a Slack reminder to bring it back at the right time.
Trigger
New Card Trigger
Triggered when a card is created in the specified board
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
Due dates can be recorded in Trello but forgotten when daily work happens elsewhere.
- Make deadlines easier to notice during normal Slack work.
- Reduce reliance on remembering which cards have dates.
- Bring a time-sensitive next step back without searching the board.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Trello and Slack to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Describe when a new card's due date should become a Slack reminder and what it should say.
- 4Select the Trello new-card trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real card that has a due date.
