How to Create a Discord and Slack Integration Flow
First, let's integrate Yoom with each app. This is called "My App Integration". My App Integration is very easy!
My App Integration
From the menu on the left side of the "My Projects" page, select "My Apps"!
↓
First, integrate Discord with Yoom. Make sure you are logged into Discord in advance! Next, click on "+ Add" at the top right. Enter "Discord" in the search box, and when the Discord icon appears, click on it.
Enter the Account Name and Access Token, then click "Add".
Discord My App Integration is now complete. It finishes very quickly, doesn't it! Let's continue with the Slack integration.
↓
Click "Create New" at the top right! Enter "Slack" in the search box, and when the Slack icon appears, click on it!
↓
A screen like the one above will be displayed, so select the desired channel and press "Allow" to integrate Slack with Yoom. My App Integration is now complete!
Next, please click "Try it" on the banner below.

You will see "Template has been copied", so click "OK".
Slack Trigger Settings
Click on the Slack icon "When a new message is posted to a channel"! Once the page moves, enter the App Trigger Title and Trigger Action, but since you are creating a flowbot using a template, it is already filled in.
Check if the account information to be linked is correct and proceed to the next step!
↓
Next, we will select the Slack channel. When a message is posted to the selected channel, it will be notified to Discord, so choose any channel you like. Click inside the box labeled Channel ID to display a list of Slack channels, and click to select one!
Once you have done this, press the test button at the bottom of the screen. If "Test Successful" is displayed in blue, press save!
Discord Settings
Next is the Discord settings. Once you have set up Discord, the creation of the flowbot is complete. It’s quick, isn’t it!
Click on the Discord icon "Send a message to a text channel". The screen will transition, but as before, since we are using a convenient template, if there is no problem with the Account to link with Discord, press next.
↓
You are now on the API connection settings page. Next, you need to enter the Webhook URL, but don’t worry, there is a help page available. You might think "Is it difficult because there is a help page?", but don’t worry! Entering the Discord Webhook URL is really easy!
Once you have entered the Webhook URL, decide on the message content, but this is also already filled in because we used a template. Templates are really convenient…!
And with that, all the settings are complete. Press the test button, and if "Test Successful" is displayed in blue, check Discord. The content from Slack is properly forwarded, right?
This concludes the creation of the flowbot. Please remember to save at the end!

1. Send the Same Message to Different Tools! Even if you use Slack and Discord separately, aren't there times when you want to send the same message content to both tools? That's when you should integrate Slack and Discord! By integrating, when a message is sent to one app, the same content will be sent to the other app as well.
2. Easy Management of History! Even if you don't need to keep all logs, this kind of integration is convenient when you want to move only part of the content to one of the tools. If you can keep a history of only the desired content, management becomes easier, and you can also use it to "share only specific content with specific members"!
3. Automate Simple Tasks! Let's automate the simple task of posting the same content to other tools. Repetitive tasks are inherently suited for automation, so once you create a flow bot, it becomes much easier afterward!
Conclusion
Slack and Discord are frequently used apps, aren't they? Checking and sending messages are very important for business. However, these tasks tend to be ones you think "I don't want to spend too much time on this" or "It's quick, so I'll do it later," making them tasks that easily pile up. In other words, this is where the true value of automation is demonstrated. Simple tasks are easy to create flow bots for, and you can focus more on core tasks, which can significantly save time! To reduce the hassle of switching between two different apps, try creating a flow bot with Yoom to integrate Slack and Discord!
With Yoom, you can easily build the kind of collaboration described here without programming knowledge.
After working as a manager at a general store, I began working from home as an SEO writer. Later, I entered into a freelance contract with a marketing startup for about five years. Surrounded by University of Tokyo students, I spent my days learning various business terminologies and how to use SaaS tools. During my time as a store manager, I was often overwhelmed by administrative tasks such as sales and inventory management, personnel management, and ordering, which frequently prevented me from engaging with customers and caused me to miss sales opportunities. Even during my freelance work, I found myself bogged down with repetitive tasks like data entry and often thought, "Can't these monotonous tasks be automated?" Therefore, I strongly resonate with Yoom's vision!
