How to automatically send Slack messages to a channel when candidates are hired in Ashby
Set the Ashby trigger as “Application marked as Hired”
Add the Ashby trigger to initiate your playbook's actions when candidates are hired.
To do this, click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "Application marked as Hired" trigger option from the dropdown menu under Ashby. It will enable your playbook to automatically identify newly hired candidates and trigger necessary actions.
If you still need to connect your Ashby account to Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.
Add the “Send message” step in Slack
Integrate Slack automation into your playbook to ensure that you receive timely updates when candidates are hired in Ashby.
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 in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically send Slack messages to a channel when candidates are hired in Ashby without requiring manual intervention.
To activate your playbook, click the toggle button at the header. Before activating, we recommend performing a test run of your playbook to ensure all the steps work seamlessly together.
