Slack @mention triggers

IntegrationsSlackTriggersv1.567.0

Trigger Windmill scripts by @mentioning the Windmill bot in Slack channels, threads, or direct messages - in addition to slash commands.

New features

  • Trigger scripts with @Windmill in public channels, private channels, DMs, and threads
  • Use the same handler script for both /windmill commands and @mentions
  • Bot mention is automatically stripped from text before passing to handler
  • Distinguish between triggers using the command parameter (@mention vs /windmill)
  • Respond to slash commands using response_url webhook
  • Respond to @mentions using Slack Web API with bot token

Workspace admins can now configure their own Slack app with workspace-specific OAuth credentials for better isolation and independent management.

New features

  • Configure workspace-specific Slack app credentials (Client ID and Secret)
  • Workspace isolation with separate Slack apps per workspace
  • Independent rate limits per workspace
  • Automatic fallback to instance-level configuration when not configured
  • Applies to f/slack_bot/bot_token resource for workspace handlers and Slack approvals
