Manage the Time Frame in Sales Channel Notification Flows

Sales channels send automated messages on a preconfigured time frame. This time frame is preconfigured on the three flows we provide with Sales Cloud for Slack. To use a different time frame, you modify the notification flow.

To modify the time frame in notification flows: Manage Flow

You change the time frame for a sales channel notification flow only in a cloned flow, where you also modify the message in the notification.

You can modify the time frame in our three notification flow templates.

  • Send Slack Notification for Approaching Opportunity Close Date
  • Send Slack Notification When Opportunity Next Step Is Unchanged
  • Send Slack Notification When Opportunity Stage Is Unchanged
  1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Flows, and then select Flows.
  2. Select the notification flow template you cloned.
  3. Under Resources, select #DaysBeforeCloseDate.
    The number of days you enter in #DaysBeforeCloseDate must match the number of days you entered into the notification message when creating a notification type.
  4. Edit the Default Value to the number of days you want.
  5. Click Done.
  6. Save this flow as a new flow or a new version.
