Connect Tutor LMS and Slack

Course creators, training teams and academies that run on Tutor LMS can keep instructors and cohorts in the loop on Slack. FlowMattic watches enrolments, finished courses, student questions and quiz attempts on your WordPress site and posts them to the right channel or person, so help reaches struggling students sooner and wins get noticed.

1. TriggerUser Enrolls in Course

2. ActionSend Channel Message

When Tutor LMS fires User Enrolls in Course, FlowMattic runs Send Channel Message in Slack with the data from that event.

You build this in the FlowMattic workflow builder on your own site. See the setup steps

Tutor LMS and Slack workflows you can build

Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.

Announce each new enrolment in a team channel

Every enrolment posts the student and course to a sales or instructor channel, so a small team sees sign-ups as they come in without checking reports.

Send student questions to the instructors' channel

A question posted in a course lands in the instructors' Slack channel with the course name, so whoever is free can answer it before the student gives up.

Flag low quiz scores to an instructor

A Router reads the score from each quiz attempt. Strong results pass quietly, borderline ones post a note, and low scores alert an instructor to reach out.

Add new students to the course's cohort channel

For internal training or communities on Slack, find the student by email and invite them to the cohort channel for their course, so they meet their group on day one.

Message staff who fail a required training quiz

Company training teams send a direct message to an employee who fails a compliance quiz, with the retake link, instead of waiting for a report at month end.

Celebrate course completions in the community

When a student finishes a course, a congratulations post goes to the community channel with their name and course, which gives others a nudge to keep going.

Triggers and actions in this pair

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.

Good to know

These workflows post to Slack, so a Slack message does not enrol a student or reset progress. Workflows start from Tutor LMS activity.
Find User by Email works only when the student uses the same email address in Slack and on your site.
Tutor LMS runs on the same WordPress site as FlowMattic, so only Slack needs a connection.

Why run this pair with FlowMattic

Tutor LMS and Slack connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.

Instructors hear about it first

Questions and low scores reach the people who can help in the app they already watch, rather than in a dashboard checked once a week.

Student data stays with you

Learner names and results go from your WordPress site to Slack directly, not through an outside automation service.

Big cohorts, same cost

Runs are unlimited on every plan, so a launch with hundreds of enrolments posts every one without a bigger plan.

Common questions

Can Slack messages enrol students in Tutor LMS?

Not with the workflows on this page, which start from Tutor LMS activity. Enrolments can be started by a form, a payment or a WordPress event, with Tutor LMS Enroll User as the action.

Can I post quiz results only above or below a score?

Yes. Use User Achieves Percentage in Quiz for a set threshold, or User Attempts a Quiz with a Filter or Router on the score.

Can each course post to its own channel?

Yes. Add a Router on the course title after the trigger, with a Send Channel Message step per channel, or build one workflow per course.

Can students get a Slack DM when they finish a course?

Yes, if they are in your Slack workspace. Use Find User by Email with the student's email, then Send Direct Message with your note and next step.
