Three steps to a running Slack workflow

The builder keeps the order you think in: connect the app, choose what starts the workflow, add what should happen.

Connect
Authorise Slack once
Add a Slack connection under Connects and reuse it in every workflow. Credentials stay in your WordPress database.
Trigger
Pick what starts it
Start from a WordPress event, a form, a webhook, a schedule or any of the 918+ integrations, then capture a sample so later steps can map real fields.
Act
Add Slack steps and logic
Chain Slack actions with Router, Filter, Iterator and Delay, test each step against captured data, then switch the workflow on.
