About Slack
Slack is where work happens, replacing email with organized channels. However, standalone Slack is just a chat app. Integrated Slack is an operating system. By connecting your stack, you transform Slack into a real-time feed of your business health—delivering deal alerts, bug reports, and deployment statuses directly to the people who need to act on them.
Integration Capabilities
Slack has 18 native integrations with leading business platforms. Connect via direct API, webhooks, or third-party automation tools for unlimited possibilities.
Browse Slack integrations below. Green integrations are native and free. Yellow integrations require an automation platform like Make ↗ to sync data.
Common Integration Patterns
- → Approval Workflows: Used as the primary communication channel for approval requests from tools like Monday, HubSpot, and Shopify, with one-click approve/reject functionality.
- → Notification Automation: Receives real-time alerts for new tasks, leads, or refunds that require approval.
- → Team Collaboration: Enables managers to discuss approval requests with team members directly in Slack channels before making a decision.
Integration Challenges
- ⚠ Notification Overload: Too many approval requests can lead to alert fatigue.
- ⚠ Message Retention: Important approval requests can get lost in Slack's message history.
- ⚠ Permissions: Ensuring only authorized managers can approve requests can be complex.
Before You Integrate
- 1. Create Dedicated Channels: Set up specific Slack channels for approval requests to reduce noise in general channels.
- 2. Configure Notification Preferences: Use Slack's notification settings to prioritize approval alerts.
- 3. Set Up User Groups: Create user groups for approvers to ensure requests are sent to the right people.
- 4. Test Approval Workflows: Run test requests to verify that approval actions are properly synchronized with the source tool.
