Trigger
New Form Response
Triggers when a respondent completes and submits the form.
Action
Post message to channel

Why this helps
Volunteer signups can receive a slow response when everyone assumes someone else is monitoring the form.
- Make new volunteer interest visible to coordinators.
- Create a natural place to decide who will reply.
- Help new community members receive a timely welcome.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Typeform and Slack to Notis once through the portal.
- 2In one instruction, ask Notis to share new volunteer signups and useful context in the coordinators' Slack channel.
- 3Select the Typeform New Form Response trigger.
- 4Choose a channel for run reports and create the automation.
- 5Submit a sample signup and verify the message supports a clear welcome handoff.
Questions about this workflow
Can it include what the volunteer wants to help with?
