Background
Some of our users don't want to interact with their BRM. They might only do perhaps 1-2 demo's or rentals per day, or only have 5 rental bikes, so instead they want a very lightweight system to receive notifications about rentals, and the status of each reservation. (on a simple mobile app for example)
For this reason we have been developing an integration with Slack.
Slack is a powerful system (mobile and desktop) who's mission is to replace email. Most importantly it will always have a FREE tier.
How to connect
1. sign up to Slack (if you don't have it already)
2. create a #rentals channel (or call with whatever you like!)
3. Go use this link to connect Slack to your BRM:
US: https://us.bikerentalmanager.com/app/settings/slack
EU: https://app.bikerentalmanager.com/app/settings/slack
Click "Connect to Slack"....
Follow the instructions to connect to your Slack Account and desired channel.
The Slack integration will send a message to your chosen channel anytime a reservation is updated.
The channel message contains a link that can be clicked to take you directly to the reservation inside BRM.
Coming soon...
slack commands to look up reservations, checkin and checkout.
