Keep your team in sync by logging sent emails to Slack
Stop repeating yourself. When you send an email, Notis posts it to your team's Slack channel so everyone knows what's been said and what's committed.
Trigger
Email Sent
Triggers when a Gmail message is sent by the authenticated user. It polls the 'SENT' label and emits metadata including sender, recipients, subject, timestamp, and thread ID.
Action
Post message to channel
Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.
Why this helps
Teams waste time asking 'Did you email that client?' or 'What did we commit to?' because sent emails stay buried in individual inboxes.
- Eliminate redundant questions and context-switching about what was communicated
- Create an audit trail of outgoing commitments automatically
- Reduce time founders spend explaining decisions or repeating information
- Enable asynchronous team awareness without manual copying and pasting
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Slack to Notis (one-time setup in the portal).
- 2Create a new automation: ask Notis 'Log every email I send to #team-comms' or use the portal New Automation button.
- 3In the automation prompt, describe the outcome: 'Post a summary of the sent email including recipient, subject, and key details.'
- 4Select the trigger: Email Sent from the integration event dropdown.
- 5Choose the Slack channel where run reports should appear (e.g., #automation-logs).
- 6Test by sending one email and verify it appears in your team channel within seconds.
Questions about this workflow
Will this log every email or only certain ones?
By default, Notis will log all emails you send. You can refine the prompt to filter by recipient type, subject keywords, or other criteria—just describe it in plain language (e.g., 'only external client emails').
Can I control what details appear in the Slack message?
Yes. Edit the automation prompt to specify exactly what you want posted (e.g., 'show recipient, subject, and first sentence only').
What if I have sensitive emails that shouldn't be logged?
Include an exclusion in your prompt such as 'skip emails to personal contacts' or use labels in Gmail to mark emails that shouldn't be logged, then refine the Notis prompt accordingly.
