Slack

What is the Slack Connection?

The Slack connection connects your Slack workspace to Duvo, enabling your assignments to send messages, manage channels, retrieve information, and coordinate team communications on your behalf. This is a user-configured connection—you'll need to connect your Slack workspace before your assignments can use it.

What Can It Do?

The Slack connection provides actions that allow your assignments to:

• Send messages: Post to channels, send direct messages, and share updates

• Manage channels: Create, archive, rename, and organize channels

• Coordinate users: Find users, manage permissions, and invite team members

• Handle files: Upload, share, and manage files across your workspace

• Set reminders: Create and manage reminders for yourself and team members

• Retrieve information: Search messages, fetch conversation history, and access workspace data

• Manage conversations: Archive, pin messages, and organize communication threads

Why This Matters

Slack is the communication hub for many organizations—where teams coordinate, share updates, and stay informed. The Slack connection allows your assignments to participate in these communications automatically, sending notifications, posting updates, and keeping your team informed without manual messaging or context switching.

When to Use It

Use the Slack connection when your assignment needs to:

• Send notifications: Alert teams about completed workflows, important events, or issues requiring attention

• Post updates: Share reports, status updates, or workflow results in relevant channels

• Coordinate activities: Create channels for new projects, invite team members, or organize communications

• Retrieve information: Search past messages or pull conversation history for context

• Manage files: Upload documents, reports, or data files to share with your team

• Set reminders: Create automated reminders for follow-ups or deadlines

How It Works

After connecting your Slack workspace, your assignments can interact with Slack using your logins and permissions. When you include Slack actions in your assignment's SOP, it will communicate just as you would—posting messages to the right channels, sending notifications to appropriate people, and keeping your team informed about workflow progress.
