You can automate email alerts to specific team members or channels using Zapier, a platform that allows you to create automated workflows called Zaps, which send information from one app to another without coding knowledge required. You can set up a trigger in Gmail to receive new emails matching specific search queries and connect it with Slack to send notifications to the selected channel. The notification will include custom formatting and data extracted from the email body, allowing you to tailor the alert message according to your needs. Additionally, you can add an extra step called Formatter to further customize the extracted information before sending it out in the Slack notification.
