Slack – Stars and Reminders (Deprecated)

Estimated reading time: 1 min

What your automation will do…

A connection to your Slack account is needed so we can sync it with our platform.
Refer to Slack – Connection
You can include between 1 and 255 Methods to build complex Flows.
Stars can still be listed via stars.list but they can no longer be viewed or interacted with by end-users. We recommend retiring any app functionality that relies on stars.
End-users can use the new Later view, but Later APIs are not currently available. As a result of this transition, the stars.list method will no longer reflect anything new that users are saving.
See this changelog for more information.

Add channel, message and file to starred

Listed a user’s saved items

Remove channel, message or file form an item

Retirement of API methods for interfacing with reminders began March 2023, and as such have become degraded or useless. Setting reminders for other users with reminders.add can now only be done with a bot token. As an alternative, you can use workflow automations to add reminders via scheduled triggers.
See this changelog for more information.

Marks a reminder as complete.

This method creates a reminder.

This method deletes a reminder.

Returns details about a reminder.

List all reminders created by or for given user

Once your Flow is configured, you can test or automate it using the Run panel or by managing Triggers from the Flow Management screen.

  • Run Flow: Manually runs the Flow once using sample data. Ideal for testing logic and field mapping. See How to Run a Flow.
  • Run Scheduler: Force-runs the Trigger immediately using live input. This bypasses the recurrence rule and is useful for verifying real data mapping. Learn more in Wiresk Scheduler – The Fundamentals.

From the Trigger management panel (clock icon), you can:

  • Activate or deactivate Triggers
  • Force-run the scheduler
  • Copy Routing Keys (for HTTP Triggers)

If your Flow uses a Webhook Trigger, it runs automatically on each incoming webhook—no scheduler required. It remains active until you manually deactivate it.
