Post emailed messages to Slack channel
How this automation works
Receive immediate Slack alerts when a SendGrid recipient unsubscribes. This Applet runs whenever SendGrid's Recipient unsubscribed trigger fires and posts a message to the Slack channel you select. It's useful for support, deliverability, or list-management teams who want to track opt-outs in real time using SendGrid and Slack. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.
