SmartFreight and Slack: Daily Consignment Summary Template
A Spojit template that totals each day's SmartFreight consignments and posts a tidy dispatch summary to Slack at end of day.
What It Builds
A Schedule trigger fires once a day. A SmartFreight Connector node pulls the consignments created that day, a Transform node totals the parcels and groups them by destination, and a Slack Connector node posts the rolled-up summary to your dispatch channel. No one has to tally manifests by hand.
The Prompt
Paste this into Miraxa and it builds the workflow, connecting the tools for you:
Build a workflow that runs every weekday at 5pm and pulls the consignments created today in SmartFreight, totals the number of parcels and counts how many go to each destination, then posts a dispatch summary to the #dispatch channel in Slack showing the total consignments, total parcels, and the destination breakdown.Connectors Used
- Schedule trigger - runs the summary on a daily cron in your timezone.
- SmartFreight - retrieves the day's consignments.
- Slack - posts the formatted dispatch summary to a channel.
Customize It
Change the run time and timezone in the prompt, swap #dispatch for your own channel, or adjust the window (for example "consignments created in the last 24 hours"). You can also ask for extra fields such as total weight, carrier breakdown, or a flag when consignment count is unusually low.
Tips
- Give the Slack connection access to the target channel before the first run, or the post will fail.
- The SmartFreight node runs in Direct mode here for one exact lookup, which keeps the run fast and AI-free.
- Run it manually once to confirm the totals match your manifest, then leave the schedule on.
