Slash Commands
Slack comes with a lot of amazing features and this integration with Easy Digital Downloads takes advantage of more than a few. One unique and powerful feature is Slash Commands. Slash Commands in Slack allow for a command to be entered and a custom response to be returned.
The EDD Slack extension currently supports the following Slash Commands:
- /edd help – returns a list of all available commands and their parameters.
- /edd sales {period} – returns a sales summary for the given period (today, yesterday, this_month, last_month, etc.)
- /edd version – Outputs the current version of Easy Digital Downloads.
- /edd discount – Outputs information about a Discount Code. This can also be used to create new Discount Codes.
- /edd customer – Outputs information about a Customer.
These commands and the many more which are coming in future updates will allow user data to be instantly retrieved right within Slack.
Automated Team Invites
Have you ever considered engaging your customers or vendors directly with a private Slack community? Well, now you can! EDD Slack includes a feature for automatically inviting customers and vendors to your private Slack team. This makes it possible to effectively sell access to a private Slack group!
When configured, customers will see an option to join your Slack team during the purchase process and vendors will during registration. It is also possible to manually invite vendors and customers while viewing their profiles right from your dashboard.
