Synap runs courses, timed exams and practice tests. FlowMattic tells instructors and course teams in Slack when learners register for an exam, submit it, flag a question or buy from the store, and when a result needs a tutor's attention. For training providers, tutoring companies and internal academies.

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.
Ready-made templateEach registration shows the learner and the exam, so instructors know how many people to expect and can plan invigilation or support.
User Registered for ExamSend Channel Message
View the template A direct message to the exam's instructor with the learner and exam name means written answers get marked promptly, not at the end of the week.
Submitted ExamSend Direct Message
When a learner flags a question, the content channel gets the question and exam, so a confusing or wrong question is fixed before more learners hit it.
Flag PlantedSend Channel Message
A Filter on the final score passes results below the pass mark to a private tutors' channel, so a tutor can offer help before the learner books a retake.

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Synap Academy 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 submissions directly, so learners get their results while the exam is still fresh.
Failed results reach tutors privately, which turns a bad score into a support conversation instead of a dropout.
FlowMattic runs on your own WordPress site with unlimited runs, so exam week with hundreds of attempts adds no per-task charge.
Create a FlowMattic workflow with a Synap Academy trigger such as Submitted Exam or User Registered for Exam, link your platform, then add Slack Send Channel Message with the learner and exam fields.
Yes. Add an Airtable or WP Tables step after Completed Exam to record the learner, exam and score, then message the instructor in Slack.
