Proposed workflow
A starting brief, not a preconfigured workflow or proof of a completed outcome. Review the generated steps and test with your accounts before publishing.
Then
- Send the question to the model running on your own Ollama server.
- Reply in the same Slack thread with the answer, answering each mention only once.
Before you publish
Connect Slack and configure an Ollama endpoint that the hosted Whenever workflow can reach, with appropriate access controls. Inference runs on your server; messages also pass through Slack and Whenever. Self-hosting the model does not keep the conversation entirely on your network.
Connect the accounts and credentials it needs first. Optional AI steps use AI at runtime and their output can vary, so review the workflow and test it before publishing.
