- 4Choose the Slack DM trigger and a channel for run reports, then test with one real preparation request.
Questions about this workflow
Is the DM private from the workflow?
Slack's DM trigger covers direct messages; choose a suitable run-report channel for automation updates.
Will this initiate the conversation with the character?
No. It retrieves the public character by ID but does not start a Chatfai conversation.
