Notis

Bring Cloudinary review candidates back into view

Run a scheduled search for assets that need attention, then highlight their existing Slack posts with a reaction.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Add reaction to message

Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.

Why this helps

Review requests get buried in Slack, leaving teams unsure which shared assets still need attention.

  • Surface review candidates in the Slack messages that already discuss them.
  • Reduce manual checking across asset libraries and conversations.
  • Use a recurring schedule to keep review work visible.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cloudinary and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, define which Cloudinary assets need review and how Notis should locate the related Slack message and add a reaction.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real asset and its existing Slack message; confirm the match before relying on the schedule.

Questions about this workflow

Can this run when an asset changes in Cloudinary?

Cloudinary exposes no trigger events in this setup. This workflow uses a Notis schedule to prompt a periodic search.

Will it create a Slack message if none exists?

No. The chosen action adds a reaction to an existing message, so the matching Slack message and its channel and timestamp must be available.

Can Notis determine which assets need review?

Only if your instruction gives usable criteria or the relevant status is available in the Cloudinary data Notis can retrieve.
