The integration for Slack allows your team to receive Ashby notifications via DMs or channel messages. Once enabled the Ashby bot will notify you in Slack as seen here.
You can enable this integration from Ashby’s Integrations marketplace. Please note, you must be an Admin in your team's Slack workspace to enable this. This is a global integration, so everyone on your team will be able to get notifications without additional setup.
Here’s a screencast showing the steps when integrating Slack with Ashby.
Once our integration is enabled, your team will be able to add Slack as a notification channel from their personal settings page.
Our integration defaults to not having notifications sent to Slack, so you should prompt your team to activate them after enabling our integration.
After you set up the integration for Slack, you'll start receiving messages from the Ashby bot.
