To do this, click "Choose an app," find Slack or PDFMonkey, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Slack, PDFMonkey, 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 PDFMonkey integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Slack and PDFMonkey (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 PDFMonkey
Slack + PDFMonkey + Google Drive: When a new message is posted in a specified Slack channel, a document is generated in PDFMonkey based on the message content. This document is then automatically saved to a designated folder in Google Drive for archiving and record-keeping purposes.
PDFMonkey + Docparser + Slack: When a new document is generated in PDFMonkey, Docparser extracts the data from it. The extracted data is then summarized and sent to a dedicated Slack channel as a message, providing a quick overview of the document's contents.
