Slack Message Generator

This actor sends messages to Slack automatically. It can be used instead of email notifications and is ideal to combine with other actors monitoring successful runs, errors, etc.
You can access the Slack Message Generator programmatically from your own applications by using the Apify API. You can choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.
