Output
This step stores the Slack API response from the posted message as the step output. Use the full output reference in later steps:Example
Open Integrations and connect Slack if you have not already done that. Add Slack to your workflow and choose a connected account in Authentication. Keep Action set to Send Channel Message. Enter the destination in Channel, such asgeneral, then write the Slack post in Message. You can insert values like {{step_1.output}} into the message body.
Click Run in the step header to test the message, then review the returned payload in Output if you want to pass any of that data to a later step.
Notes
- This step depends on a connected Slack integration in your workspace.
- The channel field uses the channel name, not a full Slack URL.
- The current editor exposes one Slack action: Send Channel Message.
