Slack Bot vs. Posting as User

I’m trying to create a workflow in Make.com where specific actions trigger messages to be posted on a Slack channel. However, I’m encountering a problem: the posts appear as if they’re from me, and not as a bot, unlike my previous setup with Zapier where they appeared as a bot.

I’m seeking advice on how to configure my Make.com integration with Slack to send messages from a bot account instead of my personal account. Here are the specifics:

  1. Is there an option in Make to authenticate with a Slack bot token?
  2. How do I switch from sending messages as a user to posting as a bot within Make’s Slack module?
  3. Are there any permissions settings I need to adjust in Slack to allow Make to post as a bot?
  4. Has anyone experienced this issue and found a workaround or solution?

Thank you for your assistance!
