Update Slack Channel Topic
4min
This action updates the topic field of Slack channels. Channel topic is a great way to display important information upfront, so users can see them without having to scroll through the channel or look at pinned and bookmarked messages.
Name
This field is automatically set for you. You can rename this field to whatever best describes your action. The value in this field does not affect how the workflow action behaves.
Channels
This field specifies which Slack channels to update the topic for.
Some common selections:
- Setting to {{ incident.slack_channel_id }} will update topic for the Slack channel of the triggering incident.
- The Liquid snytax {{ parent_incident.slack_channel_id }} can be used for sub incidents and it will update the topic for the Slack channel of the parent incident.
- You can also update topics for static channel (e.g. #gernal, #alerts)
This field defines what the topic will be. Incident variables, Liquid syntax, and Slack markdown are all supported in this field.
