Slack Mention Flashes a Stream Deck Key

Get a discreet heads-up on your Stream Deck when someone @mentions you in Slack. No sound, no popup on stream. The key flashes; press it to jump straight to the message.

Conductor Deck builds this on a visual canvas. Once it's set up, it runs on its own.

Why use this template

Stay reachable for the one Slack ping that matters without breaking your stream. Instead of a sound or an on-screen popup, the key quietly lights up when you're @mentioned. You catch it between moments and tap to jump straight to the message, so there's no alt-tabbing to scan Slack "just in case."

Questions, answered

Do I need to know how to code?
No. "Slack Mention Flashes a Stream Deck Key" runs on Conductor Deck's visual canvas. Import it, then fill in each step's fields (a channel, a scene name, a message) right in the builder. No scripts to write.
Do I have to press a Stream Deck key to run this?
No. Once you import it and connect your accounts, the New Slack Mention event triggers it automatically. Nothing to press, no manual action from you.
Is it free?
Importing it is free on any plan. The Pipedream integrations it uses are Pro features, so you need a Pro or Max plan to run it.
What do I need to use this template?
A Conductor Deck account, a Stream Deck (or the in-app virtual deck), and the connected Conductor Deck plugin listed below. You connect Slack inside the builder when you import, with no separate install. Install and link the Conductor Deck plugin before importing, then keep Stream Deck Desktop and the plugin online when this workflow runs. Confirm each local action before import.
Can I change the steps?
Absolutely. The template is a starting point. Add, remove, reorder, or reconfigure any step on the canvas after importing.
