This action sends notifications to your internal team members via Microsoft Teams, Slack, or email. Perfect for keeping everyone informed about workflow results, important alerts, or issues that need attention.
Automating internal notifications ensures your team stays informed about important events without manual effort. No more forgetting to update stakeholders or spending time writing individual messages - everything happens automatically when workflows complete.

How it works

Message collection

The action takes messages from previous workflow steps (like analysis results, summaries, or alerts) and prepares them for delivery.

Context addition

If the workflow was triggered by a ticket, it automatically adds ticket details (ID, title, company) to provide context.

Attachment preparation

For email notifications, it can convert data tables from previous actions (like reports) into CSV files for easy review.

Notification delivery

Based on your chosen channel, it sends the information to the specified team members, channels, or email addresses.

Optional feedback

If enabled, it includes a feedback link so recipients can provide input on the automated process.

Setup

Message source: Takes messages from previous actions like Ticket Triage, Executive Summary, or Data Analysis. Communication channel: Choose how to notify your team:

Best practices

Choose the right channel

  • Use Teams for immediate alerts and collaborative discussions
  • Use Slack for team coordination if that’s your primary platform
  • Use Email for formal reports and detailed information

Set up recipients properly

  • For Teams: Ensure recipients have installed the Neo Agent Teams app
  • For Slack: Verify channel IDs are correct
  • For Email: Use distribution lists for groups when appropriate

Use clear message sources

Make sure previous actions create clear, useful messages. Use Build Message to format complex information into readable updates.

Include relevant data

For email notifications with data analysis, enable CSV attachments to provide detailed information stakeholders can review.

Enable feedback strategically

Use feedback requests when you want input on new or modified automated processes.

Test delivery

Verify notifications are reaching intended recipients and adjust settings if needed.

Consider timing

For scheduled workflows, consider when notifications are sent - avoid alerting people outside business hours unless it’s truly urgent.

Monitor success

Check the Event History to ensure notifications are being delivered successfully and identify any delivery issues.
