At present, Zapier actions for Slack don't include the ability to create a private channel. Are there any plans to change that?

 

(My Slack account doesn't have privileges necessary to interact via API, so webhooks is out of the question.)

Hi @automaton 

You can submit feature requests by opening a ticket with Zapier Support here: https://zapier.com/app/get-help

 

For now, the only way to do this would be via the Slack API by using a Webhooks action step in the Zap: https://api.slack.com/methods/conversations.create


Hey @automaton!

I'd love to see that as a feature, too. 

Looks like there is an open feature request for a Create Private Channel action in Slack. I've added your vote! Should this be added in the future, we will send you an email 👍

 


Hey folks, 

Just popping by here to share that a Create Private Channel action has been added to the Slack integration:

Note: This action was added using a beta feature known as Custom Actions.

Please do give that new Create Private Channel action a try and let us know if you run into any issues with it. In the meantime, happy Zapping! 😁⚡️
