Updated over 2 years ago

Get the most out of your Slack communications with Xakia's Slack integration.

Setting up the Slack integration involves two key steps:

  1. Setting up the integration at an organization level (explained on this page); and

  2. Individual Xakia users connecting their Xakia profile with their Slack profile (explained in this article).

To set up the Slack integration at an organization level, you must be a Xakia admin and have the ability to install applications inside of your Slack workspace. The steps are as follows:

  • Click on 'Admin' from the top navigation menu

  • Click on 'Integrations' from the left hand side menu

  • Click on the 'Communications' tab

  • If Slack is not installed yet, you will notice a 'Add to Slack' button

  • Click on the 'Add To Slack' button to begin the oAuth authorization flow with Slack

    • During this step you will need to choose the shared channel to post shared notifications to

  • Click 'Allow'

  • You will see a notification posted to your channel at this time, which shows that the integration is been successfully connected.

  • You will now be taken back to the Xakia App

  • Click on the 'Communications' tab in 'Admin'

  • You will now see the various notification types available to turn on that can be sent to shared channels

  • Toggle the desired notifications you wish to receive in your shared channel to 'On'

  • Click 'Save'
