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

export default defineComponent({

},
})
Overview of TRIGGERcmd#
TRIGGERcmd is a cloud service that allows you to execute commands on your computers remotely through a REST API or via voice command with smart home integrators. With Pipedream's integration capabilities, you can create custom workflows to automate tasks across various apps and services. For instance, you could set up a serverless workflow to trigger scripts on your computer when specific events occur in other apps, such as receiving an email, a new GitHub commit, or a scheduled timer.
