Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Slack, Contacts+, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Slack and Contacts+ integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Slack and Contacts+ (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Slack and Contacts+
Slack + Contacts+ + Google Sheets: When a new message is posted in a Slack channel, the flow searches for contact details in the message. If found, it creates a new contact in Contacts+ and logs the contact details along with the message in a Google Sheet.
Contacts+ + Calendly + Slack: When a contact is updated in Contacts+, the flow schedules a meeting using Calendly. Once the meeting is scheduled, a reminder message is sent via Slack to the contact.
