What you can automate

ChatOps means managing infrastructure where your team already communicates. Flomation bridges Slack and AWS so a Slack message can trigger a Lambda deployment, and a CloudWatch alarm posts to Slack — keeping operations in the flow of communication.

Trigger Lambda from Slack commands, route CloudWatch alerts to Slack, archive files to S3, and log incidents to DynamoDB.

Send SNS Notification

Trigger SNS notification from Slack alert command

Broadcast an SNS notification to subscribers when a Slack alert is raised.

Log Slack incidents to DynamoDB

Archive Slack incident reports to a DynamoDB table for audit and analysis.

New Message in Channel

Upload Slack files to S3 automatically

Store files shared in Slack channels directly to an S3 bucket for archival.

Trigger Lambda Function

Trigger AWS Lambda from Slack keyword command

Invoke a Lambda function with parameters by sending a command in a Slack channel.

FAQ

Can I restrict which Slack channels can trigger AWS actions?

Yes. Add a channel ID filter to your workflow trigger to only allow commands from authorised channels.

Can CloudWatch alarms post to a Slack channel?

Yes — use the reverse flow with AWS SNS Notification Received as the trigger and Slack Send Channel Message as the action. See aws-to-slack.

Can Flomation invoke an AWS Lambda function when I type a command in Slack?

Yes. Use Keyword Mentioned as the trigger with your command keyword, and Trigger Lambda Function as the action, passing message parameters as the payload.
