Hello I know how to generate a text using Chatgpt. However, I would like to validate it before it continues the workflow. I thought why not have the text sent to my Slack and if I put a 🙂 on the message, it continues the workflow and if I put the reaction :(. it is rejected. However, I’m still a beginner on Make. I’d like to know if my workflow is feasible? If you know how I should do it, or if you have templates that I could use as inspiration? Thanks in advance ---

Welcome to the Make community! Throwing Slack into the mix will make this too advanced and complex. While it may be doable with two separate scenarios, I would advise not to go down this route. I would suggest completing the Make Academy before jumping into building a complete scenario. If you need specific assistance when you are building a scenario it’s easier to help you then. Otherwise, you can also hire a professional by posting in the #solution-exchange:professional-services category ## Links Here are some useful links and guides to help you get started and learn more on how to use the Make platform, apps, and app modules — ### General - [Help Center](https://www.make.com/en/help) | [Tutorials](https://www.make.com/en/help/tutorials.html) - [Make Academy](https://academy.make.com) – learn Make and get your certificate **← CHECK THIS OUT** ### Help Center Basics - [Mapping](https://www.make.com/en/help/mapping/mapping) – What is mapping?

Hello Samliew, Thank you for your help. And I have good news… I did it! I suspected that 2 separate scenarios were needed and you confirmed it for me a little. So I decided to do what I had in mind. once you understand the mechanics of Make, the setup is rather simple. Make is well thought out… I just had a real doubt when I realized that the Slack trigger for reactions/Event didn’t work. It was a disappointment because everything was there and everything worked well very quickly, but I couldn’t retrieve the reactions. A long time ago, I created a Slack app to interact with a script/webhook. I told myself that I could try this route on Make… and it worked! So, I manage to generate a message, he sends it to Slack. I put a smiley to validate it and it is automatically published… It’s magical when our automations work 🙂 ---

Make is powerful only if you know how to use it well. Good job on figuring it out!
