One of the more fun #automations I find, is the Google Assistant - Slack automation.
in short:
You talk to your phone, and by doing that, your slack status is changed.
How:
1. Choose your app, and the trigger, in #Zapier.
2. Select the phrase you want to serve as trigger.
So, what do you say to your Google Assistant, that makes your #slack status change.
Choose a couple, so when you just phrase it differently, it still triggers the desired action.
3. Choose your slack action in Zapier. Choose and contact slack as the app, and the action event.
In this case: set status.
4. Define your slack status.
Be as creative as you want.
5. Done. By using voice messaging with the help of Google Assistant, you changed your Slack status.
Now, this is an example using Slack. But the same can be done for: adding stuff to your to-do app for instance.
Fun, right 😍😍
