Salesforce + Slack

Create Slack messages for new Salesforce leads

If your team uses Slack for internal communication, you can use Zapier to automatically create Slack notifications of new leads created in Salesforce. You can even nominate the channel in Slack to use in the integration. Once this integration has been set up all new Salesforce contacts, this integration will automatically create a Slack notification to your team.

When this happens...
New Record
Triggers when a record of the specified Salesforce object (ie. Contact, Lead, Opportunity, etc.) is created.
TriggerScheduled

Send Channel Message
