Slack

The Slack connection authorizes FunnelStory to read channel messages and threads (within the Slack scopes granted) so content can appear in conversation-style features on accounts. Slack can also be used as a notification channel.

What FunnelStory uses it for

  • Messages and threads — Indexed Slack content is tied to accounts per the product’s built-in behavior.
  • Notifications — Workspace features that post notifications to Slack.

Before you connect

  • A Slack workspace admin must install or approve the FunnelStory Slack app.
  • FunnelStory uses OAuth.

Add the connection in FunnelStory

  1. Open Configuration → ConnectionsAdd connection, then choose Slack.

  2. Complete the fields in the connection form:

After you connect

Once you’ve added the Slack data connection, a Conversation Model will be automatically created for you.
