Slack integration

If you’re new to integrations in Rewst, read through our introductory integration documentation here.

What does the Slack integration do?

The Slack integration allows Rewst users to set up real-time notifications and updates from Rewst directly within Slack. Additionally, Rewst can help with Slack user management, app management, group management, and auth management. The integration also enables users to search and access Rewst content from Slack, saving time and effort. Set up triggers and actions that keep your team informed about their task progress or important events.

Set up the Slack integration

1. Navigate to Configuration > Integrations in the left side menu of your Rewst platform.

2. Search for Slack in the integrations page.

3. Click on the integration tile to launch the configuration setup page.

4. Note the Include Admin Scopes drop-down selector under Parameters. Set this to True if authorizing an account that uses Slack Enterprise. Leave it as False if the Slack account is not an Enterprise account.

5. Click Authorize. A dialog will appear.

6. Click Allow.

7. Click Save Configuration.

The Slack integration does not require you to complete the organization mapping process.
