How can I notify my team in Slack when a table run has ended?
You can notify your team in Slack when a table run ends by using our Slack integration's "Send Message to Channel" action. Setup steps: 1. Connect your Slack account in Settings > Connections 2. Add the "Send Message to Channel" action to your table 3. Configure these inputs: • Slack Channel: Enter your channel name • Summary: Your notification message (supports markdown) • Bot Name (optional): Custom bot name • Emoji (optional): Bot emoji This sends messages directly from Clay to your specified Slack channel when the table completes.
I tried doing it with that and sent a message per each row, I want a notification when all columns stop running
To send a single Slack notification when your entire table finishes running (instead of per row), use the "Send table data" feature:
1. Click Actions
→ Send table data
in your main table
2. Create or select a destination table with just one row
3. Choose Send row
and map the columns you want
4. In the destination table, add your Slack "Send Message to Channel" action
5. Configure your notification message
This way, the Slack notification only triggers once when the entire table completes, sending all data to the single-row destination table.
This is great - how can I include the URL for that same table that was completed?
You can include the table URL in your Slack notification message by adding it directly to the Summary field when configuring the "Send Message to Channel" action.
In the Summary field, you can include markdown formatting and add the table URL as a clickable link using this format: [View completed table](your-table-url)
or simply paste the table URL directly into the message.
This way, when your table completes and triggers the Slack notification, your team will receive a message with a direct link to access the completed table.
but it needs to be included in the send row
When using "Send row" to transfer data to your destination table, you can include the table URL as one of the mapped columns. In the "Send row" configuration, select which columns to send and add a column containing your table URL alongside your other data. This URL column will then be available in your destination table where you can reference it in your Slack notification message. What specific format do you want the table URL to appear in within your Slack message - as a clickable link or as plain text?
As a clickable link
When using "Send row," include the table URL as one of your mapped columns in the configuration. In your destination table's Slack notification, format it as a clickable link in the Summary field using markdown: [View completed table](table-url-column)
where you reference the URL column you sent over.
