Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Send Test Email
Tool to send a test email with a sample PDF attachment to verify email configuration. Use when you need to test email delivery for a specific automation. Rate limited to 25 emails per hour per automation.
Why this helps
Email configuration can remain unverified until a real document delivery fails at the worst time.
- Make delivery verification easy to request.
- Catch email setup problems before a critical send.
- Keep the test request and its outcome in the team's workflow.
