Monday and Slack: Onboarding Task Overdue Alert Template
This Spojit template scans your Monday onboarding board every morning and posts any overdue new-hire tasks to an HR Slack channel so nothing slips through the cracks.
What It Builds
A Schedule trigger fires once a day and a Monday Connector node reads your onboarding board, pulling items whose due date has passed and that are not yet marked done. A Slack Connector node then posts a single digest to your HR channel listing each overdue task, the new hire it belongs to, and how many days late it is. The result is a daily nudge that keeps onboarding on track without anyone manually combing the board.
The Prompt
Paste this into Miraxa and it builds the workflow, connecting the tools for you:
Build a workflow that runs every weekday at 9am, reads my Monday onboarding board, finds tasks that are past their due date and not marked complete, and posts a summary to the #hr-onboarding Slack channel listing each overdue task, the assigned new hire, and how many days overdue it is.Connectors Used
- Schedule trigger - runs the scan on a daily cron in your timezone.
- Monday - reads the onboarding board items and their due-date and status columns.
- Slack - posts the overdue digest to your chosen channel.
Customize It
Change the run time and days in the prompt, swap #hr-onboarding for your own channel, point it at a different board name, or adjust which status counts as "done." You can also ask it to skip the post entirely when nothing is overdue, so the channel only hears from it when there is real follow-up to do.
Tips
- Make sure your Monday connection can see the specific board, and that the board has a due-date column the workflow can read.
- Direct mode is enough here since each step is one exact action; reserve Agent mode for when you want the AI to decide what to surface.
- Use a five-field cron with an IANA timezone so the alert lands at 9am local, not UTC.
