这门 Coursera 课程名为“如何创建 Slack 机器人来为你自动化任务”，旨在教授学员如何利用 Slack 机器人自动化业务流程。 **课程概述：** 课程强调，Slack 机器人可以处理各种业务任务，实现自动化，从而提高效率。自动化任务意味着让机器人完美、全天候地执行某项业务流程，并且比人类更快地完成工作，甚至可以每隔几秒钟检查系统更新。 课程以客户查询账户余额和开发者记录工时为例，说明了如何通过自定义斜杠命令（slash command）简化这些过程。 课程的核心内容将围绕一个实际案例展开：一个公司中员工提交采购请求的流程。传统流程需要员工填写表单、秘书处理、CEO 审批，然后秘书反馈给员工，并负责跟踪是否有被遗忘的审批。在本课程中，学员将学习如何将扮演“秘书”角色的部分自动化，通过编写 Slack 机器人来管理整个流程，最终只有员工提交请求和 CEO 审批这两个人工环节。 **重要提示：** 课程指出，Slack API 自课程创建以来已有较大更新。讲师的最新课程“如何为 Slack 构建 OpenAI 机器人”使用了最新的 Firebase 和 Slack API。
Note: Slack has been updated quite a lot since this course was created. My latest course How to build an OpenAI bot for Slack uses the latest APIs for both Firebase and Slack.There are so many aspects of businesses that can be automated using Slack.What does it mean to automate a task?Imagine being able to take a process in your business, and be able to get a bot to not only do it for you, but also do it perfectly every time. Not to mention your bot can be working 24/7, often perform tasks much faster than a human, and check on updates to systems every few seconds instead of hours or days. aka. the perfect employee.What sort of tasks can be automated in Slack?Almost anything you can think of. You're only limited by your creativity.Say a client wants to know their balance on their account. They could email you, and then you reply. Or you could give them a slash command to retrieve their balance whenever they want.Maybe a developer needs to log time they've worked. They could go into an accountancy system and manually enter that time, and then send a message to a project manager to let them they've finished their task. Or.you could give that developer a single custom slash command that will perform all those tasks for them.So what are we going to learn in this course?Let's say you have a company where employees can submit purchase requests for things they might want. They would normally fill out some form, give it to a secretary, who would then take it to the CEO to make a decision on. That secretary then needs to give that feedback to the employee who requested the purchase.The secretary will also monitor all the purchase requests, so that if the CEO has forgotten to make a decision on one of them, that secretary will remind the CEO.In this course we're essentially going to code up this entire flow, primarily by turning the human secretary into a Slack bot. So that the only human beings who will use the system is the CEO and the employee making the purchase request.Pretty amazing right?
