Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Slack to Wolfram alpha api. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Slack triggers

Wolfram alpha api actions

New Channel Created Trigger

Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.

TriggerInstant

Async Pod Fetch

Fetch a single asynchronous pod from Wolfram|Alpha Full Results API. Use this tool to retrieve individual pod computations that were marked as async in a Full Results query. When you query the Full Results API with async=true, pods that take longer to compute return async URLs containing 'id' and 's' tokens. Use those tokens with this tool to fetch the computed pod content. Typical workflow: (1) Query Full Results API with async=true parameter, (2) Parse response for async pod URLs, (3) Extract id and s tokens from URLs like 'asyncPod.jsp?id=MSPa...&s=13', (4) Use this tool with those tokens.

ActionInstant

Channel Message Received

Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.

TriggerInstant

Establish Wolfram|Alpha Connection

Tool to store Wolfram|Alpha AppID into the connection credential store. Use when establishing or updating your AppID so that subsequent actions automatically include this credential.

ActionInstant

Direct Message Received

Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.

TriggerInstant

Extract Recalculate URL & Tokens

Tool to extract the recalculate URL and id/s tokens from full Wolfram|Alpha results. Use when you need to follow up with recalc.jsp or relatedQueries.jsp calls.

ActionInstant

Message Reaction Added

Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

TriggerInstant

Full Results Recalculate

Recalculate a prior WolframAlpha Full Results query to retrieve additional computational results (pods). Use this action when: - A previous Full Results API query timed out or returned incomplete results - You have a recalculate URL or ID token from a previous query - You need to fetch more computational pods from the same query The action requires the 'id' token (obtained from EXTRACT_RECALC_URL_TOKENS or from a Full Results response). The 's' parameter is optional and often not needed. Returns raw XML containing the recalculated query results, which may include additional pods or error information.

ActionInstant

Message Reaction Removed

Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.

TriggerInstant

Full Results Related Queries

Tool to fetch related query suggestions for a previous Full Results computation. Use after obtaining `id` and `s` from a Full Results API response.

ActionInstant

Reaction Added Trigger

DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_ADDED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack.

TriggerInstant

Get Wolfram|Alpha AppID

Tool to fetch the Wolfram|Alpha AppID from credentials. Use when you need to verify the current AppID before making API calls.

ActionInstant

Reaction Removed Trigger

DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_REMOVED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message.

TriggerInstant

Query LLM API

Tool to query Wolfram|Alpha LLM API for computed knowledge optimized for large language model consumption. Returns plain text results with query interpretations, computed data, and image URLs. Use when you need comprehensive computational knowledge formatted for AI agent processing.

ActionInstant

New Bot Message Received Trigger

DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_CHANNEL_MESSAGE_RECEIVED` with `is_bot_message=true` instead. Triggered when a new bot message is posted to a Slack channel.

TriggerInstant

Query Summary Box

Tool to query the Summary Boxes API for pre-generated XHTML boxes summarizing Wolfram|Alpha knowledge. Use when you need formatted summary information for subjects like countries, chemicals, dates, or people. Requires a valid summary box path from Query Recognizer API.

Trigger Types

Four ways to start an automation.

A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.

Integration triggers

Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.

New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event

Webhook triggers

A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Recurring triggers

Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers

Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.

Why AI automation

Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.

Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
