Add the slack connector on your Zenaton dashboard,
enter the credentials and authorize Zenaton to call the slack API from your workflows.
Then add code snippet and URL path to your workflow.
const { workflow } = require("zenaton")
module.exports = workflow("MyWorkflow", function* () {
const slack = this.connector(
'slack',
'connector-id')
const response = yield slack.get('path_to_API')
const params = {body: {param1: '...'}}
yield slack.post('path_to_API', params)
})
We handle the complexity of orchestrating Slack API calls and related logic in your code.
Add the connector to your Zenaton workflow and we manage the authentication, oauth1 and oauth2 flow including token refreshing.
If your Slack API call fails, it can automatically be retried and you will receive an alert with error details.
View the Zenaton dashboard for execution history, scheduled tasks, errors and logs or retry failed Slack API calls.
The Zenaton connector is a pre-configured task for calling the Slack API inside your workflow with one line of code. Build custom integration logic by adding a workflow directly into your application using the functions in the Zenaton SDK.
// The Zenaton engine orchestrates slack API calls and related logic via the Zenaton agent. Every step is executed at the right moment on your servers and monitored on Zenaton dashboard.
const { workflow } = require("zenaton");
// slack authentification on Zenaton
module.exports = workflow("ParallelWorkflow", function* () {
const slack = this.connector(
'slack',
'your-connector-id-from-zenaton-dashboard'
);
// execute parallel tasks handled automatically by the Zenaton engine
const [a, b] = yield this.run.task(["TaskA"],["TaskB"]);
if (a > b) {
const response = yield slack.get('path_to_API');
} else {
yield this.run.task('TaskD');
}
});

// If event has been triggered within 24 hours
yield this.run.task('TaskA');
} else {
// else calls slack API
