Building a Low-Code Flex Activity Monitor with Twilio Event Streams and Slack

What's this blog post about?

This guide demonstrates how to build a low-code Flex activity monitor with Twilio Event Streams and Slack. It involves creating a custom middleware function using Twilio Functions, configuring a Twilio Event Stream sink, and setting up an incoming webhook in Slack. The function processes events from the Event Stream, filters out irrelevant data, and sends a POST request to the Slack webhook with the relevant event data. The integration is achieved without any server infrastructure and uses only a few lines of code. The guide showcases the power of Twilio Event Streams for building custom integrations with third-party applications in a low-code fashion.
