Announce Airtable user profile changes to your team in Slack
When someone updates their Airtable profile (name, role, contact info), Notis posts the change to Slack. Your team's contact information stays fresh without everyone checking manually.
Trigger
User Profile Changed
Triggers when the connected Airtable user's profile information changes.
Action
Fetch team info
Fetches comprehensive metadata about the current slack team, or a specified team if the provided id is accessible.
Why this helps
Team members change their roles or contact info in Airtable, but others don't know about it. Outdated team info leads to misdirected communication.
- Keep team contact and role information current automatically
- Catch changes to team structure before they cause communication failures
- Reduce time spent updating team lists or directories manually
- Enable the team to stay aware of role transitions and promotions
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and Slack to Notis (one-time).
- 2Create an automation: 'When a team member's profile changes in Airtable, post the update to [Slack channel].'
- 3Select 'User Profile Changed' as the Airtable trigger.
- 4Choose the Slack channel for profile announcements (often #team-updates or #general).
- 5Test by updating someone's Airtable profile and confirming the announcement in Slack.
Questions about this workflow
Will this announce every change or only specific fields?
It can announce all changes or specific ones (e.g., role changes only, not email updates). You can configure this in the automation prompt.
Does this help with onboarding new team members?
Yes. When you add a new person to the Airtable team table, the automation will announce them to Slack, welcoming them to the group.
Can I route different types of profile changes to different channels?
Yes. Create separate automations for promotions, departures, or other significant changes, each with its own routing.
