Jahia Stack connect works with jExperience and jCustomer to connect you with the rest of your technology stack, from productivity tools and databases to a broad selection of backoffice and martech applications. Use StackConnect to build automated workflows that trigger actions throughout your stack based on events in Jahia, or update profiles in Jahia based on events and data from across your stack.
Before you begin
To create or use this recipe example you will need:
A Jahia system with jContent, jExperience and jCustomer configured with at least one page and at least one recorded visitor
A StackConnect login with the Jahia connector for your version of Jahia and a connection to Jahia from your StackConnect account
A Slack account and a connection to Slack from your StackConnect account.
In this tutorial you will create a recipe that listens for an event in Jahia and triggers an update in an external system.
Creat a recipe that will send a message to Slack using the new or updated profile event, include the email address, first name and last name of the visitor.
