# Notify

## Overview

The **Slack Notify** action allows your AI Agent to send automated messages directly to your Slack workspace. This is especially useful for **notifications, alerts, and updates** that need to be shared with your team in real time.

**Example**: Send a notification to a Slack channel whenever a new lead is collected or a customer requests support.

## How to Create a Notify

### Step 1: Create a Slack Notify Action

1. Go to the **Actions** tab.

2. Click **List** from the left-hand menu.

3. Select **Create Action**.

5. Enter an **Action Title** in the pop-up window (e.g., Slack notify) and click **Create**.

6. You'll now see the configuration screen for Slack notifications.

### Step 2: Basic Settings

* **Name** → Enter a descriptive name.

  * Example: newLeadSlack

* **Description** → Provide details about when the AI Agent should use this action.

  * Example: Send a message to the sales Slack channel when a new lead is collected.

This ensures the action is triggered under the right conditions.

### Step 3: Configure the Notification

Once Slack is connected, you can configure the notification content and define:

* Which **Slack channel** the message will go to.

* What **message content** should be sent (e.g., text updates, lead details, support ticket alerts).

### Step 4: Enable the Action

At the top of the configuration screen, toggle from **Disable → Enable** to activate Slack notifications.

## Example Workflow

1. A visitor submits a **lead form**.

2. AI Agent collects the information.

3. Slack Notify action is triggered.

4. A message is sent to the **#sales** channel:
   **“New Lead Captured — Name: John Doe, Email: [john@example.com](mailto:john@example.com).”**

With the **Slack Notify** action, your AI Agent can automatically keep your team updated, ensuring important events are communicated in real time.
