Currently, there is no direct feature in Pipedream that allows you to receive webhook events specifically when a workflow is enabled or disabled. However, you can upvote and add your feedback to this GitHub issue to express your interest in such a feature. For more information on managing workflows, you can refer to the Pipedream Workflows documentation. If you have further questions or need assistance, feel free to visit Pipedream Support.

To receive notifications via Slack when a Pipedream workflow is enabled or disabled, you can set up a workflow that triggers on these events and sends a message to Slack. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this: 1. Create a New Workflow: Start by creating a new workflow in Pipedream. 2. Set Up a Trigger: Unfortunately, Pipedream does not have a built-in trigger for workflow state changes (enabled/disabled). You would need to use a workaround, such as manually triggering the workflow when you enable or disable another workflow, or using an external service that can monitor these changes and trigger a Pipedream workflow. 3. Send a Slack Notification: Use the Slack integration to send a notification. You can use the “Send Message to a Public Channel” action in Pipedream to send a message to a Slack channel. Here is an example of how you might set up the Slack action: ```
import { axios } from “@pipedream/platform”; export default defineComponent({ props: { slack: { type: “app”, app: “slack”, }, channel: { type: “string”, label: “Channel ID”, description: “The ID of the channel where the message will be sent”, }, message: { type: “string”, label: “Message”, description: “The message to send”, }, }, async run({ steps, $ }) { return await axios($, { url: https://slack.com/api/chat.postMessage, method: “POST”, headers: { Authorization: Bearer ${this.slack.$auth.oauth_access_token}, }, data: { channel: this.channel, text: this.message, }, }); }, });

Hi , unfortunately we don’t send notifications when a workflow is enabled or disabled. Could you tell me more about the use case? When can a workflow be disabled / enabled in your case?
