Tented integrates with Slack to send real-time notifications when forms are submitted on your published tents. This guide walks you through connecting your Slack workspace to Tented and configuring a Slack automation.

​
Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:
  • Admin access to your Tented workspace
  • Permission to install apps in your Slack workspace (or access to request app installation from your Slack admin)

​
Step 1: Connect Slack in Workspace Settings

  1. In Tented, click on your profile icon in the bottom-left corner.
  2. Select Workspace Settings from the menu.
  3. In the Integrations area, select Add Integrations. (If you already set up an integration, the button says Manage Integrations.)
  4. On the Integrations page select Install on the Slack tile.

Step 2: Set Up a Slack Automation in Your Tent

Now that Slack is connected to your Tented workspace, you need to set up an automation to send notifications for form submissions. Set Up Form Submission Notifications:
  1. Fron the Tent Details page of the tent you want to set up notifications for, select the Add Automation button. (If you already set up an automation, the button says Manage Automations.)
  2. In the Tent Automations window, select Add Automation.
  3. On the left, under Trigger, select Form Submission.
  4. Under the trigger, select the form you want notifications for from the dropdown list. The list shows all forms in the tent.
  5. On the right, under Action, select Send Slack Message.
  6. Select the Slack Channel you want notifications sent to.
  7. Select Save to finish.
  8. Select Close to exit the Tent Automations window.
