Microsoft To Do + Slack

Send direct Slack messages with new Microsoft To-Do lists

One-to-one communication is just as important as team communication, but it's hard to find the time to speak directly with everyone. Set up this automation, and we'll send a direct Slack message to any user when there are new Microsoft To-Do lists. Rest easy knowing your message was sent to the right person, and it will be taken care of.
