Slack Notifications: Setup in Checkfront

Setup in Checkfront

Back to top

 

 

 

Once you have your channel created in Slack, it's time to configure the add-on in Checkfront. Login to Checkfront and navigate to Manage > Add-ons from the main menu.  

 

 

 

 

Locate the Slack Notifications tile, hover over it with your mouse and click on the Setup button. This will launch the setup window, as seen above. Enter the channel name created in the previous step. Make sure you put the hashtag at the front, as this is required.

By default, the Post New Booking Notifications option will be checked. Whenever a new booking is made, either by a customer/partner on the front end, or a staff member in the back end, a notification will be sent to the Slack channel.

It's also possible to send a notification when a note is added to a booking by a staff member. If you'd like to activate this option, check the box labeled Post Staff Notes When ready, click the blue Activate button in the bottom right corner of the window.
