Post emailed messages to Slack channel
How this automation works
Post recent messages from a Basecamp message board to Slack. When your Maker Webhooks JSON event is received, the applet asks Basecamp for the recent messages from the board you select and posts the top message to the Slack channel you choose. This surfaces new discussions to your team in Slack and is useful for tracking project updates. Customize the message to fit your tone.
