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 Sendbird API
Setup the Slack API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the Sendbird API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate Slack and Sendbird 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!

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {

type: "app",
app: "slack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {

headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Overview of Sendbird#
The Sendbird API provides programmatic access to advanced chat features, enabling the creation and management of in-app messaging for community forums, customer support, or any other chat-based interaction. By leveraging the Sendbird API on Pipedream, you can automate user management, message and channel handling, and event tracking. Pipedream's serverless platform simplifies these automations, offering a way to integrate chat functionalities with other services, trigger workflows from chat events, and handle real-time data processing without writing extensive infrastructure code.
