What it does

## Use Slack for Debug Breakpoints! If you are frustrated with n8n's lack of effective tools for debug print and debug breakpoints, look no further than using the Slack node: - Log to your own personal channel in slack - Slack volume is free (with company slack account) - Slack node now supports interactive prompts, which can be used to create conditional breakpoints

  2. Breakpoint
