How to automatically send a Slack notification when an order is placed in Webflow
Set the Webflow trigger as “Order placed”
Add the Webflow trigger to initiate your playbook's actions when an order is placed.
To do this, click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "Order placed" trigger option from the dropdown menu under Webflow. It will enable your playbook to identify newly placed orders and trigger necessary actions automatically.
If you have yet to connect your Webflow account to Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.
Add the “Send message” step in Slack
Integrate the Slack automation into your playbook to ensure that you receive timely updates about the Webflow placed orders.
Select "Add Step" and then find the "Send message" automation for Slack. Enter all the required details, including the sender's name, the Slack channel for updates, and the message body containing detailed information.
If you still need to connect your Slack account to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Ensure that you allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to send messages through your Slack account.
Activate your playbook
Activating your playbook is the last step. Once you turn it on, the playbook automatically sends a Slack notification when an order is placed in Webflow without manual intervention.
To enable your playbook, click the toggle button located in the header. It is advisable to perform a test run of your playbook beforehand to ensure all steps work seamlessly together.
