* Test your Zap thoroughly before turning it on to catch any potential issues.
* Consider adding error handling steps to manage potential failures in the workflow.

By following these steps, you'll have successfully set up Zapier triggers for CrewAI AMP, allowing for automated workflows triggered by Slack messages and resulting in email notifications with CrewAI AMP output.
