New integations: Ability to integrate Slack to our forms

Hi guys,

I have added a slack webhook

to a 'DOCTO referrals' jotform but it does not work... 

in the documentation it says it has to be sent as 

Send a JSON string as the payload parameter in a POST request Send a JSON string as the body of a POST request

what am I doing wrong?

thanks

Jon

UPDATE (May 7, 2019): Direct integration with Slack is available now. 

1. Open the Form Builder and find the Slack integration under the Settings tab and authorize your Slack workspace. 

2. Select a channel/person on your workspace to send your notifications to. And add your message that will appear at the beginning of your Slack messages. Then, select the form fields that will be included in your message. Additionally, you can add "View Submission" and "Edit Submission" buttons to your message in order to view or edit submission from Slack.

3. You can create multiple connections to your channels or send direct messages to team members using the same integration by clicking "+ADD NEW" button: 

Integration is ready! 

Once you get a submission, the submission will be sent to the channel.

We currently do not have a direct integration to Slack, but we have the Zapier integration, which is a 3rd party app that integrates JotForm to the application, this includes Slack.

You can check the app directly here: https://zapier.com/apps/jotform/integrations/slack 

Let us know if you have any questions or if you need further assistance. 

Since the form data submitted will be sent as an array using POST method, you may be required to add some custom code using the webhook to redirect to a different Thank you page.

Let me also forward the thread to our backend team as a feature request for evaluation. Unfortunately, we cannot provide any ETA at this moment for the implementation. However, if there is any update in this regard, you'll be posted here.

Thanks!
