1

Set the Stripe trigger as “Payment received”

Add the Stripe trigger to initiate your playbook's actions before receiving a payment.

To do this, click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "Payment received" trigger option from the dropdown menu under Stripe. It will enable your playbook to automatically identify newly received payments and trigger necessary actions.

If you still need to connect your Stripe account to Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.

2

Add the “Send DM” step in Slack

Integrate Slack automation into your playbook to ensure that you receive timely updates on the received payments.

Select "Add Step" and then find the "Send DM" automation for Slack. Enter all the required details, including the receiver's name and the body of the message containing detailed information.

If you still need to connect your Slack account to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Ensure you allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to send direct messages through your Slack account.

3

Activate your playbook

Activating your playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically send direct messages via Slack for every Stripe payment received without requiring manual intervention.

To activate your playbook, click the toggle button in the header. Before activating, we recommend performing a test run of your playbook to ensure all the steps work seamlessly together.
