Connect Slack to Waymaker

Slack is a team messaging app. Waymaker has no built-in Slack integration: Commander has its own channels for team chat. To post Waymaker updates to Slack, add a Send Webhook step to an automation and point it at a Slack incoming-webhook URL. To bring Slack events into Waymaker, send them to a Waymaker incoming webhook through Zapier or Make.
