Missing 'New Pushed Message' Slack trigger after app update


Hi! We’ve gone through and updated all our Zaps that utilise Slack triggers & actions from the legacy app to the updated version, however the ‘New Pushed Message’ trigger isn’t available on the updated Slack app? I can’t find any reference to this in any public forum to confirm if this is temporary or a consequence of changes in the update, etc - does anyone happen to know?

The ‘Push to Zapier’ function is visible in Slack, but clicking it returns the error screenshotted below…

Hi there, ​@tom.evans and ​@JolteonPixel 👋

I’m happy to report that the New Pushed Message trigger is available to use on the newer version of the Slack app now. 🎉

Your Zaps will have been automatically migrated over to the new version of the New Pushed Message trigger so there shouldn’t be any need to update your Zaps to change the trigger. That said, if you run into any issues with this new version please do let us know. In the meantime, happy Zapping! ⚡

Hi ​@tom.evans, welcome to the Community! 🎉

I did some digging and it seems that the New Pushed Message trigger is temporarily unavailable for the new version at the minute. I don’t have an ETA for when it will be added to the new version but I do know that the team are working on getting it added before the legacy version of the Slack app is removed.

In the meantime, it should still be possible to use the New Pushed Message trigger via the legacy version of the Slack app. If you change the Zaps to use the previous version of the Slack app that should allow your Zaps to continue running until it’s sorted:

I’ll follow up here to confirm once it’s been added so you can switch over to the newer version of the Slack app again. 

Let me know if you run into any issues in switching back to the older version, keen to ensure you’re all set!

Hi Sam,

 

I’m having the exact same issue as ​@tom.evans here.

 

Zaps configured with the Legacy Slack do no longer push messages from Slack (it’s broken)

The New Slack doesn’t have the ability to push

Reverting back to Legacy Slack shows the ability to push as a deprecated feature.

 

Eagerly awaiting an update.

Thank you for reaching out here, ​@JolteonPixel. I’m sorry to hear that you’re running into this as well.

We can’t give any estimates as to when the New Pushed Message trigger will be available on the newer version of the Slack app, but I’ll definitely post an update here once it is. In the meantime you’ll need to stick with the legacy version of the Slack app to continue using the New Pushed Message trigger. Although it will appear as a legacy trigger, it should still function as it did before.  

Thanks for your patience in the meantime.
