1. Accessing Pabbly Connect to Automate Your Slack Workspace

To automate your Slack workspace, you need to start by accessing Pabbly Connect. Open your browser and go to Pabbly.com/connect. If you’re new to Pabbly, click on ‘Sign up free’ to create an account and get 100 free tasks every month.

If you are an existing user, simply select ‘Sign in’ to access your dashboard. Once logged in, navigate to the Pabbly apps window and click on ‘Access Now’ under Pabbly Connect. This will take you to the dashboard where you can create your automation workflows.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

To set up your automation, you need to create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name your workflow, for example, ‘Automate Your Slack Workspace’. Choose a folder name from the dropdown menu, such as ‘Automations’, and click the ‘Create’ button.

In this workflow, you will set up a trigger and an action. The trigger will be a new payment captured through Razer Pay. Select ‘Razer Pay’ as the trigger app and ‘Payment Captured’ as the event. Click on ‘Connect’ to build a new connection.

• Select ‘Add a New Connection’.
• Enter your Key ID and Key Secret from your Razer Pay account.
• Click on ‘Save’ to establish the connection.

Once connected, you will receive a webhook URL. This URL is essential for connecting Razer Pay with Pabbly Connect.

3. Setting Up Razer Pay with Pabbly Connect

Now that you’ve established your connection in Pabbly Connect, you need to set up Razer Pay to send notifications to your Slack workspace. Copy the webhook URL provided in Pabbly Connect and log into your Razer Pay account.

Navigate to the ‘Developer’ section and select ‘Webhooks’. Click on ‘Add New’ and paste the webhook URL. Set the active event as ‘Payment Captured’ and click ‘Create Webhook’. This will ensure that every time a payment is captured, a notification will be sent to Pabbly Connect.

To test the setup, make a test payment using your Razer Pay payment page. Once the payment is successful, return to Pabbly Connect to check if the webhook has received the response with payment details.

4. Formatting Amount Using Pabbly Connect

After receiving the payment details, you may notice discrepancies in the amount format. To correct this, use the Number Formatter feature in Pabbly Connect. Add a new action step and select ‘Number Formatter by Pabbly’. Choose ‘Perform Method Operation’ as the event.

In the configuration, map the amount received from the previous step. Enter it as a comma-separated value. For example, if the amount is 50000, you would enter it as ‘50000,100’ and select the operation as ‘Divide’. Click ‘Save’ to format the amount correctly.

• Map the amount from the previous step.
• Set the operation to divide by 100.
• Click ‘Save’ to apply the changes.

This step ensures that the amount sent to Slack is accurate and formatted correctly for notifications.

5. Sending Notifications to Slack with Pabbly Connect

With the payment amount formatted, the next step is to send a notification to your Slack channel. In Pabbly Connect, add another action step and select ‘Slack’ as the app. Choose ‘Send Channel Message’ as the event.

Click on ‘Add a New Connection’ and enter the required token type. After granting access, select the Slack channel you want to send notifications to. In the message field, compose your message by mapping the relevant details such as customer name, product name, order ID, and the formatted amount.

Map the customer name, product name, order ID, and formatted amount. Ensure all required fields are filled. Click ‘Save and Send Request’ to finalize the setup.

Once you click ‘Save’, you will receive a successful response, indicating that your Slack notification has been sent successfully.
