Hi,

I've set up a "When HTTP request is received" trigger in Power Automate to receive data from Slack

When a message is sent in a specific Slack channel/a Slack form is filled, I would like it to pass that data to power automate so that my flow can process what I've received

How can I get this done?

Pass Form or Text from Slack to Power Automate

Hi, I know this is an old post, but there's no clear instructions for this anywhere as far as I can tell.

For future readers, I've posted step-by-step instructions for how to do this with an HTTP request, and the Slack API here.

Hi @HebronA,

Are you struggling with the Slack side of things? If so, I think this is more a Slack community related question and I would suggest to ask the same question in this community as well:

Based on the docs I would say you would need to include that in your Slack workflow and form. It should be possible to pass the data to a custom function in your Slack workflow:

https://api.slack.com/automation/forms

In that workflow you should be able to use an HTTP request. Below is an example for GitHub:
