Today we will look at something different, Chat Automation often also referred to as ChatOps. What is this and why should we care about it? In this session I will take you through the basics, discuss why this is worth our time and how it can help you get more out of your investment of PowerShell scripts and modules. Aside from that we are going to take a challenge, get a fully customizable PowerShell Slack bot up-and-running within 10 minutes.
