Updates to Our Slack Integration: React to Messages with Reactji to Kick Off Zaps

An emoji is worth a thousand words—and with the latest update to the Slack + Zapier integration, it can kick off a Zap, too. Use the New Reaction Added Trigger to kickstart a workflow whenever you add a reactji (Slack's term for reacting with an emoji) to a Slack message. With this new feature, you can automatically add a reminder to your task list when you add a checkmark emoji to Slack messages, or set up a Zap that automatically reposts any Slack message you react to in a different channel to seamlessly share news or alerts across your team's chat.
