Does a Slack Integration stay active when saving the original SmartSheet as a New SmartSheet
I have a Slack notification being sent for a specific row in my SmartSheet.
It's a Template SmartSheet, so it gets "Saved as New" every time a new project is started.
I'm noticing that the Slack notification seems to get de-activated on the new (project specific) SmartSheet I just saved/created off of the template SmartSheet.
Is this normal/expected behavior?
And is there any work-around so that the Slack Notification stays Active on the new SmartSheets that get created from the Template SmartSheet?
Thank you,
Garo

Yes, what you're experiencing is currently expected behaviour, since the workflow is connecting to a third party app.
When you create a new sheet with Save-as-New, you'll need to go into the new workflow created and re-select the correct channel for the workflow to send to.

It would be nice if the option/feature existed to copy the worksheet along with the workflows enabled. The general idea already exists with the pop-up box that allows the user to specify some of the items that will/won't be copied over. It could just be a box for each workflow that could be checkmarked or unchecked.

I fully support @Garo Stone-DerHagopian. We need to have slack posts automation enabled by default when creating new sheets either from "Save as New" or from templates. Imagine, you have a document with 5-10 automations posting in Slack on different conditions. It is very cumbersome and inconvenient to re-activate and specify all messaging credentials every time you create a new document.
