Create a Form
Learn how to build a form to send a message to your Slack workspace from Qlik.
Go to your Forms Manager
In the top menu click on "New Form"
Slack uses CORS so you will need to use LLodi Agent to make the request.
Provide a name and description to your Form. You can also add some tags to facilitate its management.
In advanced options choose
HTTP method 'POST'and add the header'Content-Type' 'application/json'.Add as Form URL the Slack Webhook using LLodi Agent as a Proxy. It will look something like this:
{your agent URL}/proxy?https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
If you select Slack as From Type all the required fields and headers will be created automatically. Then you can modify them.
Field ID | Label | Type | Action | Value |
username | From | Select | Split CSV List | Fernando, Nacho, Juan |
channel | to | hidden | | #llodi |
text | Message | Text Area | | |
icon_emoji | Emoji | Text | | |
Insert the fields and save changes. As you can see in field channel, some values can be defined directly in the platform.
Copy the form GUID in the platform.
Go to your LLodi Extension edition menu in your Qlik dashboard.
Paste your GUID in Data/GUID
You are ready to send messages to Slack from Qlik!
