1.Monitors new channel messages
Integrate Slack and ticketing workflows to capture after-hours messages and thread context for ticket creation.
Create after-hours tickets from channel messages for oncall

How this automation creates after-hours tickets your team can act on
When after-hours channel messages go unanswered, delays can slow triage and extend resolution time. This automation monitors Slack threads, formats schedules, checks business hours, filters exempt posters, and creates Freshservice ticketsβso your team can respond with full context.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism β I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.
Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO
Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.
Rishi Shah, CEO and Co-Founder
