Connect Slack to MailNesto
Campaign results, approvals, orders and alerts posted to a channel.
Slack and MailNesto, together
Some things your team should hear about straight away: a campaign that finished or failed, a campaign waiting for approval, a new order that came from an email, a sending server that stopped working. The Slack connection posts these to a channel you pick, each with a link back to the right page in MailNesto.
It uses a Slack incoming webhook, so it can only post to the one channel you chose when creating it. You choose exactly which events are posted, and a test button confirms the setup in seconds.
What moves between Slack and MailNesto
Campaign finished sending, campaign failed or paused, campaign needs approval, and A/B test picked a winner.
New orders credited to a campaign, with order number, amount in ₹ and the campaign name.
Deliverability alerts, a delivery server failing, and new privacy requests such as a data access or deletion request.

Send a test message
In the connection’s Setup tab click “Send test message”. If Slack refuses it, the Activity tab shows Slack’s answer.
What you can do with it
Agencies and larger teams can post “Campaign needs approval” to a #campaign-approvals channel, so the approver sees it and opens the campaign from the link.
A #sales channel that shows “New order #2041 · ₹3,200 · From “Pongal sale”” keeps the whole team aware of what the newsletter earns.
Send deliverability alerts and server failures to the channel your technical person watches, so a rising bounce rate or a broken server gets attention the same day.
Questions about the Slack integration
Can I post to more than one channel?
Yes. Create one connection per channel, each with its own webhook URL and its own choice of events.
Are all orders posted?
Only new orders credited to a campaign, so the channel shows what email brought in rather than every sale.
What does a message look like?
A bold title, a short line of detail, and an “Open in MailNesto” link to the campaign, report or page concerned.
What if Slack is down?
Nothing in MailNesto waits for Slack. A failed post is logged in the Activity tab and your campaigns carry on.
Who can set it up?
Owners and admins connect apps. The webhook URL is stored encrypted, and anyone on the team can read the messages in the channel without a MailNesto login, so pick the channel with that in mind.
