Email a message to a Slack channel

First, we need to connect Email and Slack to IFTTT.

• 

  Create IFTTT account.

  Create IFTTT account if you don't have one.

• 

  Connect Email to IFTTT.

  Give IFTTT access to your Email account, using Email credentials.

• 

  Connect Slack to IFTTT.

  Give IFTTT access to your Slack account, using Slack credentials.

Next, we need to create a workflow automation scenario using graphical no-code web interface of IFTTT.

• 

  Set up a Trigger action for Email

  Choose the following trigger: Send IFTTT any email (Send IFTTT any email at [email protected] and this Trigger fires. You can optionally add a single file attachment and IFTTT will create a public URL to the file as an Ingredient. This trigger will reject emails with attachments over 30MB.).

• 

  Then set up an Action for Slack

  Choose this action: Post to channel (This Action will post a message to the channel you choose in Slack.).

Finally, we need to test this automation and publish it.

• 

  Customize data flow

  Configure the data that is exchanged between Email and Slack.

• 

  Test the workflow and turn it on for production use

  Test your scenario and publish to production. Now you have an automatic workflow, that will Email a message to a Slack channel!
