Capture urgent Discord messages as Slack reminders
You spot an important Discord message but don't have time to act on it right now. Instead of keeping it in your head (which never works), Notis automatically creates a Slack reminder, giving you a concrete next step when you're ready.
Trigger
New Discord Message Trigger
Polls a specific Discord channel for new messages.
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
Important Discord messages get lost in the noise, and switching between apps to capture them breaks your focus and adds friction to your workflow.
- Catch urgent Discord messages without forgetting them
- Reduce context-switching between Discord and Slack
- Maintain a clear Slack-based reminder system
- Turn async Discord traffic into actionable Slack reminders
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your Discord and Slack accounts to Notis (one-time setup in the portal)
- 2Open Notis Automations and create a new workflow with the prompt: 'When a new message arrives in my urgent Discord channel, create a Slack reminder for me to follow up'
- 3Choose the trigger: New Discord Message from your specific channel
- 4Select the Slack channel where Notis reports automation runs
- 5Send a test message to Discord and verify the reminder appears in Slack
Questions about this workflow
Will this capture every Discord message or just specific ones?
You control it by specifying which Discord channel to monitor. Notis only captures messages from that channel, keeping the workflow focused and signal-to-noise ratio high.
Can I customize the reminder text?
Yes. Your plain-language prompt shapes how Notis interprets the message—you can ask it to include priority levels, action items, or other details.
What happens if I receive multiple Discord messages quickly?
Each message triggers its own Slack reminder, so you get a complete record without missing any urgent items.
