MarketMan and Slack: Daily Low-Stock Alert Template
A ready-to-build Spojit template that checks your MarketMan inventory every morning and posts a Slack summary of anything running below par so the kitchen can reorder in time.
What It Builds
This template runs on a Schedule trigger each morning, pulls current inventory counts from MarketMan, and uses a Condition node to flag any item below its par level. A Connector node then posts a tidy Slack summary of the at-risk items to your kitchen channel, so staff see exactly what to reorder before service starts.
The Prompt
Paste this into Miraxa and it builds the workflow, connecting the tools for you:
Build a workflow that runs every morning at 7am, pulls current inventory counts from MarketMan, flags any item that is below its par level, and posts a summary to the #kitchen Slack channel listing each low item with its current count and par level so staff can reorder before running out.
Connectors Used
- Schedule trigger - fires once a day at the time you choose, in your venue's timezone.
- MarketMan - reads current inventory counts and par levels.
- Slack - posts the low-stock summary to your kitchen channel.
Customize It
Change the run time and channel in the prompt to fit your prep schedule, or swap #kitchen for a purchasing channel. You can also add a margin (for example, flag items within 10% of par) or split alerts by category so produce and dry goods land in different channels.
Tips
- Connect the Slack connector with permission to post to the target channel, and invite the Spojit app into it first.
- Use a Connector node in Direct mode for the MarketMan read so there is no AI cost on this scheduled run.
- If no items are below par, add a Condition to skip the Slack post and keep the channel quiet.
