Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Slack, OpenAI ChatGPT, 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 OpenAI ChatGPT integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Slack and OpenAI ChatGPT (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 OpenAI ChatGPT

Slack + OpenAI ChatGPT + Google Sheets: When a new message is posted to a specified Slack channel, the message content is sent to OpenAI ChatGPT for summarization. The summary is then added as a new row in a Google Sheets spreadsheet for archival and team knowledge base purposes.

OpenAI ChatGPT + Slack + ClickUp: When OpenAI ChatGPT generates an idea (triggered by a message to ChatGPT), that idea is then used to create a new task in ClickUp. A message containing a link to the newly created ClickUp task is sent to a specified Slack channel to notify the relevant teams.
