Push “New Rating” to Slack via Zapier

What's Zapier


Zapier makes it easy to automate tasks between web apps. It’s an integration platform that allows you to connect popular web services without being a developer.


What's a Zap


A Zap is a connection, or integration, between two apps that automates your workflow. A Zap is made of a "trigger" (ex.: When I receive a new email in Gmail...) and an "action" (ex.: send me an SMS message). Zaps run automatically to move and manage data without any work on your part. Only "On" Zaps count against your limit.
