Slack workflows with CodeWords
Overviews
How it works?
Listen for messages and mentions
CodeWords monitors public channels where the bot is invited and detects when someone mentions @CodeWords or posts specific keywords. Use these messages to trigger workflows in other apps.
Send instant notifications
When something happens in your other apps, CodeWords sends a formatted message to any Slack channel. Customize the message content, add context, and keep your team informed in real time.
Build chatbots with @mentions
Create chatbots that respond when team members mention @CodeWords in a channel. The bot can answer questions, fetch data from other systems, or kick off automated processes on your behalf.
Create approval workflows with reactions
Post a message requiring approval and let team members react with emoji. CodeWords watches for specific reactions like ✅ or ❌ and triggers the next step in your workflow based on the response.
Route messages intelligently
Set up rules to route messages from one channel to another based on content, sender, or keywords. Keep conversations organized and make sure the right people see the right information.
Process direct messages
Listen for direct messages sent to the CodeWords bot and use them to trigger workflows. Team members can interact with your automation privately without cluttering channels.
Monitor multiple channels at once
Track activity across several public channels simultaneously. CodeWords can listen to different channels for different triggers and respond accordingly, all from a single workflow.
Build Custom Chatbots for Your Team
Create helpful bots that respond when someone mentions @CodeWords in a channel. Answer common questions, fetch information from your systems, or guide people through processes without writing code.

Send payment alerts from Stripe

CodeWords works with public channels in your Slack workspace. The bot needs to be invited to any channel you want it to monitor or send messages to. Once invited, it can listen for messages, respond to mentions, and post notifications to that channel.
