Automation - Trello auto-Slack message to an individual (not channel)?

Glen Davis

We have Butler-linked the automation between Trello and Slack and have a handful of automation for a Kanban process.  We are successful in setting up auto-Slack messages (based on conditions/movement/creation) to a Slack Channel, but cannot do so to an individual.  Is there a workaround for this or is it on the Roadmap for future?

 

Thanks!

Hey Glen, most slack integrations only work on a channel or group level; you might be able to achieve something similar by using outlook as a middle man; set up a board notification for assignees and watchers of a card, send to outlook, and use a outlook forwarding rule to send that to a slack individual, but this is really only off the top of my head.
