Send a Slack alert when a new CalendarFix booking is confirmed
When CalendarFix confirms a new booking, this workflow posts the details to a Slack channel, so the people who handle appointments see each confirmed one without opening CalendarFix.

What this workflow does
A confirmed booking usually means someone has to get ready: a consultant blocks time, a front desk expects a visitor, a manager plans the day. If that team lives in Slack, a message there is the quickest heads-up. This workflow sends it for every confirmation.
The CalendarFix trigger starts a run each time CalendarFix confirms a new booking. FlowMattic forwards the booking data to Slack, where Send Channel Message posts in the channel you choose. The message text is yours, with booking values such as the customer and time dropped in where you want them.
Only confirmed bookings start a run, since that is the single event CalendarFix offers in FlowMattic. Each confirmation sends one post. If a message doesn't appear, Task History shows what happened on the Slack step.
Front desk at a clinic
Reception follows a #bookings channel and knows who is coming in as soon as each CalendarFix appointment is confirmed.
Sales demos
When a prospect's demo is confirmed, the sales channel sees it, and whoever is free can claim the call.
Freelancer with a virtual assistant
Your assistant watches the Slack channel and prepares notes for each confirmed client call.

- CalendarFix 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.
- Confirm a test booking in CalendarFix after import so you can see which booking values arrive and pick the ones that belong in the Slack message.
- Swap the action for Slack's Send Direct Message if one person, rather than a channel, should hear about each booking.
- Add a Filter after the trigger if only certain booking types should be announced, using a field the booking data carries.
Questions about this workflow
Do unconfirmed CalendarFix bookings post to Slack?
No. The trigger is New Booking Confirmation, so a run starts only once a booking is confirmed.
Will a cancelled CalendarFix booking send a message?
No. FlowMattic's CalendarFix integration offers only the confirmation trigger, so cancellations don't start this workflow.
Which Slack channel does the CalendarFix alert use?
Whichever channel is picked inside the Send Channel Message step. Change it any time in the step settings.
