Slack Step

The Slack step sends a text message to a Slack channel using a named connection. Use it to alert your team when a workflow session starts, completes, or reaches a key milestone—so the right people are notified without any manual follow-up.

Configuration

name	type	required	description
`connection`	string	yes	The name of the Slack connection to use, as configured in Integrations.
`action`	string	yes	The operation to perform. Must be `SEND_MESSAGE`.
`channel`	string	yes	The Slack channel name or ID to post the message to (e.g. `#ops-alerts`).
`message`	string	yes	The text content of the message. Supports mapping placeholders.

Example

The example below sends a notification to the #ops-alerts channel when a new session is received.

{
  "connection": "slack-prod",
  "action": "SEND_MESSAGE",
  "channel": "#ops-alerts",
  "message": "New submission received for Workflow ABC."
}
