Post emailed messages to Slack channel
How this automation works
Get instant Slack notifications when a Substack user you follow publishes a new post. This Applet runs whenever that Substack user publishes and posts a customizable message to the Slack channel you choose containing the title, author, excerpt or description, and link. It's great for teams, editors, or community managers who need real-time Substack updates in Slack. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.
