Who this workflow is for
This template is for teams who want a lightweight “daily icebreaker” in Slack and creators who’d like to build a reusable trivia database over time. It works well for remote teams, communities, and any workspace that enjoys a quick brain teaser each day.
What this workflow does
The workflow fetches a random multiple-choice question from the Open Trivia Database (OpenTDB), posts a nicely formatted trivia message to a Slack channel, and logs the full question and answers into a Google Sheets spreadsheet. Over time, this creates a searchable “trivia archive” you can reuse for quizzes, content, or community events.
How it works
A Schedule Trigger runs once per day at a time you define.
A Set node randomly chooses a difficulty level (easy, medium, or hard).
A Switch node routes to the matching OpenTDB HTTP request.
