Slack
Slack is a channel-based messaging platform. With Slack, people can work together more effectively, connect all their software tools and services, and find the information they need to do their best work — all within a secure, enterprise-grade environment.
Integrate the Slack API with the Grist API
Setup the Slack API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the Grist API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate Slack and Grist remarkably fast. Free for developers.

Overview of Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!

Overview of Grist#
Grist API on Pipedream enables you to automate data management tasks in your Grist documents. This might mean syncing data across different platforms, triggering notifications based on data changes, or processing data through custom logic. With Pipedream, you can use the Grist API to build workflows that react to events in real-time, connect to hundreds of other services, manipulate data in sophisticated ways, and create custom endpoints to integrate with your Grist data.
