About this workflow template
This automation scenario allows you to connect Discourse and Slack
It can be build using Pipedream, a no-code workflow automation tool. Pipedream allows you to create automated bots using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.
Discourse and Slack can also be integrated using automation tools other than pipedream:
