How to connect Slack and Youform

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Slack, Youform, 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 Youform integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Slack and Youform (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 Youform
Youform + Google Sheets + Slack: When a new form is submitted in Youform, the submission data is added as a new row in a Google Sheet. Then, a notification is sent to a Slack channel to inform the team about the new submission.
Youform + HubSpot + Slack: When a new form is submitted in Youform, a new contact is created in HubSpot. A confirmation message is then sent to a Slack channel to notify the team about the new contact creation.
