What this workflow does
A new help article only helps if the people answering customers know it exists. Support agents keep linking an old answer, and sales never hears about the guide that would close a question. This workflow tells your team in Slack each time an article goes live in NeetoKB.
The NeetoKB trigger, New Published Article, fires when a new article is published. FlowMattic then posts to Slack with Send Channel Message in the channel you pick. You write the message and map article details into it, such as its title and, if NeetoKB sends it, the link.
Every newly published article is announced, with no Filter. The trigger watches publishing, so drafts don't post anything. Send Channel Message is meant for public channels; for a private support channel, use Slack's Send Private Channel Message action instead.
Support team kept current
When the docs writer publishes a troubleshooting guide, the #support channel sees it and agents start linking it in their replies.
Release notes for the whole company
Product updates written as NeetoKB articles are announced in #general, so staff outside the product team hear about changes.
Review after publishing
Posting each new article in a docs channel invites a quick second read from colleagues who spot errors or missing steps.
How this workflow runs
What happens at each step once the workflow is on, and what you need before you import it.
NeetoKB New Published ArticleStarts a run each time NeetoKB publishes a new article from your knowledge base. Its details move on to the Slack step for use in the message.
- Slack Send Channel Message
Posts in the Slack channel you pick, using the NeetoKB article details you map into the text. You link your Slack workspace to FlowMattic when you import the template.
What you need
- FlowMatticCore
- NeetoKB AccountAccount
- Slack AccountAccount
After importing, map your own data. To keep the template universal, not every step is pre-filled. Open each step in the builder and connect your accounts and fields (channels, lists, sheets, recipients) before you switch the workflow on.
Make it yours
Changes worth making after you import it.
- Include the article URL in the Slack message so teammates can open the new NeetoKB article in one click.
- If only some categories matter to a channel, add a Filter after the trigger on the category value, once a test shows it is in the article data.
- Use Slack's Send Private Channel Message action if your support team talks in a private channel.
Questions about this workflow
Does editing a published NeetoKB article post again?
The trigger is New Published Article, which fires for newly published articles. Test an edit on your own knowledge base to confirm how NeetoKB reports updates.
Can the Slack post include the NeetoKB article link?
Yes, if the trigger data includes it. Publish a test article after import and map the URL value from the captured data into your message.
Are NeetoKB drafts announced in Slack?
No. Nothing is posted until an article is published.
Can I announce new NeetoKB articles in several Slack channels?
Yes. Add another Send Channel Message step after the first one and pick a different channel.
