OpenClaw + Slack Integration
Send alerts, summaries, and updates to Slack. Run OpenClaw workflows from channels and slash commands.
What OpenClaw does with Slack
5 automation capabilities
Send notifications to any channel or DM
Post formatted messages with rich text, mentions, and thread replies. Keep the right people informed the moment something happens — without them having to check another tool.
Trigger automations from Slack with slash commands
Add a slash command that fires an OpenClaw workflow directly from Slack. Type /report, /sync, or /check — and OpenClaw does the work while the response comes back in the channel.
React to channel messages and mentions
When someone posts in a specific channel or mentions the bot, OpenClaw can parse the message, take an action, and reply — turning Slack into a command interface for your whole stack.
Route alerts to the right people automatically
Look up user IDs by email and mention specific people in notifications. New lead assigned to Sarah? OpenClaw pings @sarah in Slack directly. No manual routing.
Add interactive buttons to messages
Include action buttons in messages — Approve, Reject, Snooze. When someone clicks, OpenClaw handles the response and updates the relevant system. Approval workflows without a separate tool.
How simple is it?
Just tell OpenClaw what you need
You message OpenClaw:
“Post a message to #sales with today's new leads from HubSpot — name, company, and lead score for each one”
No workflow builder. No API docs. No configuration UI. Just plain English.
