Slack
Post each accepted submission to a Slack channel as a short card (Block Kit). Great for sales alerts, support queues, or internal visibility.
What you need
- Permission to add an Incoming Webhook to a Slack workspace and channel.
What Formspring sends
Formspring posts to Slack’s incoming webhook URL you paste in Formspring. The message includes the form name, submission id and time, and up to ten simple fields (long text is trimmed for Slack). Formspring does not add X-Formspring-Signature; Slack’s URL is the credential.
Steps
- In Slack, create or open an app → enable Incoming Webhooks → add a webhook to the target channel → copy
https://hooks.slack.com/services/…. - In Formspring, open your form → Integrations → Slack → paste the URL → Save.
- Submit a test; confirm the card and Deliveries shows 200.
Tips
- Treat the webhook URL as a secret-anyone with it could post to your channel.
- Need mentions, threads, or advanced formatting? Use Make, Zapier, or n8n with the JSON from their triggers, or post-process with a generic webhook.
