Chat Step

Chat step for Slack / Discord / Teams — team notifications, developer alerts.

​

Guidelines

• Conversational tone with standalone context (the recipient sees the message outside your product UI).
• Markdown is supported on most platforms (bold, links, code, lists).

​

Variables

Use Liquid syntax in body:

• {{ subscriber.firstName }}
• {{ payload.* }}
• {{ steps.<http-step-id>.<property> }} — only when the upstream HTTP step declares the property in its responseBodySchema
