Want to be alerted in Slack when things happen in Waitwhile? Introducing the newest Zapier integration in our Waitwhile family! Slack has tons of options and works great with Waitwhile - you can use it to update you when someone has booked an appointment, joined the waitlist, or even sent you an sms message!

That's right - at an example to the Waitwhile waitlist as an example for us to use during this Integration test. Use the 'blue plus sign' on the Waitlist tab or add them via the Check-In url.

Start by selecting 'Waitwhile' as the program you want to begin this Zap with. Select 'New or Updated Visit' to be alerted when someone joins the Waitlist. Select 'New or Updated Message' if you want to be sent a Slack message any time someone responds to one of your Waitwhile sms messages.

Choose your Waitwhile account as well.

Follow the prompts and use the dropdown menus to make sure that you are being updated with the right information from the right waitlist.

Decide when you want to be updated as well. For this example, I decided that I wanted to be updated when someone was waiting.
