About this Applet
Post Host Tools booking summaries to a Slack channel. When you submit any new note with the Note widget, the applet asks Host Tools for bookings between the dates you configure and posts matched booking details to the Slack channel you choose. Ideal for short-term rental hosts who want instant Slack alerts about upcoming guests and reservation status from Host Tools. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.
