hello everyone!

As the title says, I’d like to know if possible to have a notification on slack when a date is reached in Excel. The date are entered manually by me, but then I’d like a reminder to be sent. 

 

Does it exist something like this? 

Many thanks!

Hi @ellis1985 

One option:

  1. Trigger: Schedule - Daily
  2. Action: Excel - Find Row
    1. NOTE: This will only find 1 Row per day
  3. Action: Filter
    1. Check if Row is found
  4. Action: Slack - Send Channel Message

 

Another option:

  1. Trigger: Schedule - Daily
  2. Action: GSheets - Lookup Rows
    1. Can find 0+ Rows
  3. Action: Filter
    1. Check if Rows are found
  4. Action: Slack - Send Channel Message

 

Alternative option:

  • Use Airtable
  • Airtable has specific field types. (e.g. Date)
  • Airtable has native Automations
  • Airtable Automations have a native Slack integration
  • Airtable Automation can be configured to trigger when Date = Today, then send Slack Channel Message
