Overview

Slack is a collaboration tool used for communication within an organization. You can communicate over Slack by using public channels, private channels, and direct messaging. The TIBCO Flogo® Connector for Slack makes use of APIs offered by Slack. You can create a customized Slack app and connect the app to the connector to automate operations such as gathering information from services and directing it to specific channels. For example, a Slack channel can be automatically notified whenever a flow with a Salesforce trigger is activated with updates from Salesforce.com.

Use the Slack Connector tile in your flows to perform Slack operations such as creating channels, inviting users, posting messages, and other related operations in your Slack workspace.

To use the connector, you must first create a Slack connection. After creating a Slack connection, you can add a Slack activity to define operations.

Note: For details on using Slack, refer to the Slack product documentation.
