Create a webhook in Frigade

Set up data variables in Slack

In the Slack Workflow, click the Starts with a webhook card at the top and add the variables you’d like to send in your Slack message as seen below:

By default Frigade sends user__email and user__name for the given user if the data has been provided in the SDK. In this case, we also want to send the value of the message field from the Form Flow. To do this, we add a new variable data__data__message to map it to the field. You can target any field in a Frigade Form by prefixing the variable name with data__data__.

Select and radio form inputs will include both the label and the value in the webhook. Therefore, if your field is named industry you should use data__data__industry__label to get the label or data__data__industry__value to get the value.
