Update or reuse a single step without touching everything downstream. ### Catch workflow failures before they cost you an order When a workflow errors, Relay routes the failure to another workflow that retries the task, alerts your team, or reroutes the order. Nothing silently drops. ### Let AI decide how to handle a broken workflow Your AI assistant reviews the failed step, the data involved, and past outcomes, then chooses whether to retry, escalate, or reroute the task. No manual triage required. ### Alert your team the moment stock runs low MESA watches inventory levels across your catalog and sends a Slack message the instant a threshold is hit. Your team can act before customers ever see a stockout. ### Keep your team in the loop on every order When an order comes in with specific conditions — high value, wholesale, flagged address — MESA sends a Slack alert instantly. No one has to check dashboards to know what needs attention. ### Replace manual status updates with automatic ones When a fulfillment status changes in Shopify, MESA posts the update to the right Slack channel. Your ops team always knows where orders stand without chasing tracking numbers. ## Build any Relay and Slack automation MESA helps you connect apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and actions are the steps that occur when it's running. ###### Channel Archived Starts when a channel is archived. - Type - Channel - User - Is Moved - Event Ts ###### Channel Created Starts when a channel is created. - ID - Name - Is Channel - Is Group - Is Im - Is Mpim - Is Private - Created - Is Archived - Is General - Unlinked - Name Normalized - Is Shared - Is Org Shared - Is Pending Ext Shared - Pending Shared - Context Team ID - Updated - Parent Conversation - Creator - Is Ext Shared - Shared Team Ids - Pending Connected Team Ids - Is Member - Last Read - Topic - Purpose - Previous Names - Priority - Success ###### Channel Deleted Starts when a channel is deleted. - Type - Channel - Actor ID - Event Ts ###### Channel Renamed Starts when a channel is renamed. - Type - Channel ###### Private Channel Received Message Starts when a message is sent in a private channel. - Type - User - Text - Ts ###### Public Channel Received Message Starts when a message is sent in a public channel. - Type - User - Text - Ts ###### User Joined Channel Starts when a user joins a channel. - Subtype - User - Text - Type - Ts - Channel - Event Ts - Channel Type ###### Add Emoji Reaction Add an emoji reaction to a message. - Success - Data ###### Archive Channel Archive a channel. - Success - Data ###### Create Channel Create a channel. - Name - Is Private ###### Create Reminder Create a reminder. - Text - Timestamp - Team ID - User ###### Delete Message Remove a message. - Channel - Ts - Success ###### Find User by Email Find a user by an email address. - ID - Team ID - Name - Deleted - Color - Real Name - Tz - Tz Label - Tz Offset - Profile - Is Admin - Is Owner - Is Primary Owner - Is Restricted - Is Ultra Restricted - Is Bot - Updated - Is App User - Has 2fa ###### Get List of Channel's Messages Obtain a list of a channel's messages. - Type - User - Text - Ts - Thread Ts - Team - Subtype - Bot Link - Bot ID ###### Get List of Channels Obtain a list of channels. - ID - Name - Is Channel - Is Group - Is Im - Created - Creator - Is Archived - Is General - Unlinked - Name Normalized - Is Shared - Is Ext Shared - Is Org Shared - Pending Shared - Is Pending Ext Shared - Is Member - Is Private - Is Mpim - Updated - Topic - Purpose - Previous Names - Num Members ###### Get List of Members in Channel Obtain a list of members in a channel. - 0 ###### Get List of Team's Users Obtain a list of users in a team. ###### Get List of Thread's Replies Obtain a list of replies from a specific thread. - Type - User - Text - Ts - Thread Ts - Team - Subtype - Bot Link - Bot ID ###### Invite User to Channel Invite a user to a channel. - ID - Name - Is Channel - Is Group - Is Im - Created - Creator - Is Archived - Is General - Unlinked - Name Normalized - Is Read Only - Is Shared - Is Ext Shared - Is Org Shared - Pending Shared - Is Pending Ext Shared - Is Member - Is Private - Is Mpim - Last Read - Topic - Purpose - Previous Names ###### Kick User from Channel Remove a user from a channel. - Success - Data ###### Send Message Post a new message to a specific channel. - Channel - Ts - Success ###### Set Conversation Topic Set a topic for a conversation. - ID - Name - Is Channel - Is Group - Is Im - Is Mpim - Is Private - Created - Is Archived - Is General - Unlinked - Name Normalized - Is Shared - Is Frozen - Is Org Shared - Is Pending Ext Shared - Pending Shared - Parent Conversation - Creator - Is Ext Shared - Shared Team Ids - Pending Connected Team Ids - Is Member - Last Read - Latest - Unread Count - Unread Count Display - Topic - Purpose - Previous Names ###### Update Message Modify a message. - Channel - Message - Timestamp ###### Trigger Workflow Pass to Workflow - Hand off execution to another workflow by name. - Task ID - Error ## Expert support included MESA includes hands-on support from automation experts who know how to get things done. ### Free workflow setup We'll build your first workflow with you live.
