Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Slack triggers

Zoho mail actions

New Channel Created Trigger

Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.

TriggerInstant

List Zoho Mail Accounts

Retrieves all Zoho Mail accounts associated with the authenticated user. Returns account details including accountId (required for other mail operations), email addresses, storage information, account status, user preferences, and security settings. Use this action first to get the accountId needed for subsequent mailbox, message, folder, and email operations. The accountId is a unique identifier for each mail account. Typical workflow: List accounts → Get accountId → Use accountId in other mail operations.

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.
