I have set u an integration between Smartsheet and slack to send alerts to a private slack channel. Can I further qualify this alert to send it to a particular member of the slack channel?

Separately, will non-licensed smartsheet users see the alert from Smartsheet in the slack channel that they are members of?

Thanks

Hi @Emmy Anderson<\/a> <\/p>

You are not missing anything. This is how DV works with dropdowns unfortunately. My work around in the past is to create an other option in the drop down, user chooses save. Then have logic built for a text field that appears so the user can input the values not present in dropdown. <\/p>

Hope this helps<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":343,"name":"Add Ons and Integrations","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/apps-and-integrations","allowedDiscussionTypes":["discussion","question"]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":319,"urlcode":"functionality","name":"functionality"}]},{"discussionID":107733,"type":"question","name":"Active Directory Integration","excerpt":"Hello, We have recently setup our Active Directory Integration.

@warrena<\/a> Sometimes the test function can be a little wonky. It's hard to say for sure why its not showing up because your setup looks right. If it was me, I would apply to global update to only one project and then investigate. Just make sure when you go to the next step you only check one project to update.<\/p>"},{"commentID":385993,"body":"

the screen after you do the test is this<\/p>

When you hit apply update it will take you to the next and final screen and there will be the option to select the projects you want to apply the update to. Select only one and hit apply. <\/p>
