Polly already runs your polls and surveys inside Slack. FlowMattic carries the results further: a submitted survey into a leadership channel, a low score to the right manager in private, open comments summarised by AI. For people, HR and team leads who run pulse surveys and retros with Polly and want the answers acted on.

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 submitted survey posts to a results channel, so leads who were not in the original channel know a pulse or retro has gone out.
Survey SubmittedSend Channel Message
View the template A Branch reads the rating in each response. Low scores post to a private managers' channel, so a struggling team gets attention without the answer being shared widely.
Response CreatedBranchSend Private Channel Message
An AI Agent reads free-text answers and writes a short theme, such as workload or tooling, so leadership reads patterns rather than every comment.

Response Changed tells the owner by direct message, so they know the results moved after they last looked.

When a survey is submitted, Add Reminder sets a prompt a few days later to close the loop with the team, which is where pulse surveys usually stall.

Survey Updated posts what changed, so the people team knows when questions are edited after responses have started coming in.

At the end, every Polly survey that is submitted posts its title and owner in the results channel you pick.
In FlowMattic, open Connects and add the Slack workspace where Polly runs.
Create a workflow with Polly and the Survey Submitted trigger, then follow the setup instructions on the trigger step.
Send a short test survey with Polly so FlowMattic captures the survey fields.
Add Slack Send Channel Message, choose the results channel, map the survey title, owner and link, test it and switch the workflow on.

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Polly and Slack connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
Low scores and themes reach the people who can respond, so surveys feel worth answering.
Survey responses pass through your own WordPress site on the way to Slack, not through another company's automation account.
Runs are unlimited on every FlowMattic plan, so weekly pulses across the company cost nothing extra.
Polly posts results where the poll ran. FlowMattic sends selected answers elsewhere: low scores to a managers' channel, AI summaries to leadership, reminders to the owner.
Create a workflow with a Polly trigger such as Survey Submitted or Response Created, follow its setup instructions, then add a Slack step such as Send Channel Message with the fields mapped.
Yes. Add a Branch after Response Created that checks the rating, and post only the low path to a private channel.
FlowMattic posts only the fields you map. For anonymous surveys, map the answer and question but not any respondent field.
Yes. Add a Google Sheets or WP Tables step to the same workflow, so each response is kept in a table and only the important ones post to Slack.
