See impact.com Messages from Partners in Slack

impact.com Messaging enables you to exchange messages with partners that have joined your program(s). By using Slack's Incoming Webhooks, you can configure a channel in your Slack workspace to notify you when partners send you a message.

How it works

  • You'll create a new app in your Slack workspace and generate a Webhook URL for the channel you want notifications to appear in.

  • In your Impact account, you'll add the specific webhook URL for that channel to enable the integration.

  • Once connected, any time you receive a message in Impact, the app will notify you via the Slack channel you provided.
