How does this automation work?
Bardeen automates the process of fetching data from Product Hunt and sharing it on Slack, enhancing your team's ability to stay updated on the latest tech products. Whether for market research or simply staying informed, this integration pulls product information from Product Hunt directly into your Slack channel or DMs, allowing for real-time discussions and insights without manual data entry.
Here's how this workflow streamlines data sharing from Product Hunt to Slack:
- Step 1: Scrape Product Hunt Data - The Scraper is configured to extract data from a Product Hunt product page while you're viewing it. It captures essential details using a specific template for Product Hunt.
- Step 2: Prepare the Message - Bardeen merges the scraped data into a structured message. For example, it puts together the product name with its details to make the Slack message informative.
- Step 3: Send Slack Message - Finally, Bardeen sends the composed message to the designated Slack channel or user. You'll need to specify the Slack recipient when setting up the workflow.
