What it does.
Any channel
Public channels, or private ones once you type /invite @Xenpai in them.
Buttons for your steps
Up to five buttons, like Approve, Needs info or Decline, from the steps your form uses.
Emails go out for you
A press moves the submission and sends that step's emails, just like deciding in Xenpai.
Only your team decides
Presses count only from people on your Xenpai team, matched by their Slack email.
A clear record
Once someone decides, the buttons are replaced by what was decided and by whom.
More than new arrivals
Post when something is paid or changes step too, not only when it arrives.
Part of the whole process.
Questions
Who can press the buttons?
People on your Xenpai team as staff or owners, matched by the email on their Slack account. Anyone else sees a note, only to them, saying they can't decide.
Can Xenpai post in a private channel?
Yes. Type /invite @Xenpai in the channel first.
Does Xenpai read our conversations?
No. It posts messages, lists your channels so you can pick one, and reads the email of whoever presses a button.
How do I connect Slack?
In Xenpai, open Settings, then Connections, and press Connect next to Slack. You do it once for your workspace; then just ask for it in the chat.
