This automation scenario allows you to connect Strava and Slack
It can be build using Zapier, a no-code workflow automation tool. Zapier allows you to create automated scripts 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.
Strava and Slack can also be integrated using automation tools other than zapier:
