Slack and Telegram

Get your daily digest and right-away pings in a Slack channel or a Telegram chat, and act on new people from there.

Connect Slack or Telegram when you want your B2B Signals updates where you already read messages. Each member connects their own channels, and a channel gets only that member’s digest and pings.

Data moves from B2B Signals to Slack or Telegram. In Telegram, the buttons on a message also act back in B2B Signals.

What reaches the channel

What	When
Your daily digest	Once a day, when your digest is due. Sections: New people, Replies, Messages to approve
Right-away pings you turned on	”Someone replies”, “A sender needs to reconnect”, “A campaign pauses on its own”, “You get close to your monthly limit”

You choose the digest time and which pings you get in Settings › Notifications. See Notifications.

Connect Slack

1. Make a webhook address in Slack

   In Slack, add the Incoming Webhooks app to the channel you want. Copy its address. It starts with https://hooks.slack.com/.

2. Open Notifications

   Open Settings, then Notifications, and press Add Slack or Telegram.

3. Paste the address

   Choose Slack. Paste the address into Slack webhook address. Name (optional) helps you tell channels apart, up to 60 characters.

   

   Add Slack or Telegram, Slack chosen: paste the Slack webhook address, add a name if you want, then press Connect Slack.

4. Connect

   Press Connect Slack. We post “Connected. B2B Signals will post” followed by your workspace’s name in the channel. The channel is kept only if Slack accepts that post.

If Slack refuses, you see “Slack didn’t accept that webhook. Check the URL and try again.” Check that you copied the whole address.

Connect Telegram

1. Open Notifications

   Open Settings, then Notifications, and press Add Slack or Telegram. Choose Telegram.

2. Open our bot

   Press Open Telegram. Telegram opens our bot. The link works once, for 15 minutes.

3. Press Start

   Press Start in Telegram. The bot answers that the chat is connected, and the window in B2B Signals closes on its own. If Telegram didn’t open, press Open Telegram again.

If you see “Telegram isn’t available yet. Slack and email work now.”, use Slack or email for now.

A Telegram chat can belong to one member of a workspace. If someone else in the workspace already connected that chat, the bot says so. They send /stop there first.

Act from the message

In	What the buttons do
Telegram	Good fit and Not a fit mark the person at once, in the chat. Undo takes it back
Slack	The buttons open a page in your browser where you confirm

Your channels

• A new channel gets your daily digest straight away.
• You can have up to 5 channels. To add a sixth, disconnect one first. Otherwise you see “Disconnect a channel before adding another.”
• Open a channel’s menu and press Send a test to check that it still works.

When a channel stops working

What happens	What we do
The Slack webhook was deleted or its channel archived	We disconnect the channel
You blocked the bot in Telegram	We disconnect the channel
Slack or Telegram had a short problem	We keep the channel and note the error. The next message tries again

Your email digest keeps working either way.

Disconnect

In Settings › Notifications, open the channel’s menu and press Disconnect. For Slack, we forget the webhook address. In Telegram, you can also send /stop to the bot. That disconnects every channel linked to that chat.
