# Slack

### Overview

The Slack integration connects nexos.ai with your Slack workspace so you can reference channel conversations and shared context directly in nexos.ai. It helps you catch up on updates, summarize threads, and answer questions using the same discussions your team already has in Slack.

### Setting up the integration (organization admin)

1. Open **Settings**.
2. Go to **Organization** → **Integrations**.
3. Find **Slack** in the list.
4. Set the integration to **Active** (enabled).

After it’s enabled here, team members can connect their own Slack accounts.
{% endhint %}

### Connecting your account (individual user) from **My Integrations**

1. Open **Settings** (select your email/profile at the bottom of the left sidebar, then **Settings**).
2. Select **My Integrations**.
3. Find **Slack** and select **Connect**.
4. You will be redirected to Slack. Sign in if prompted.
5. Review the access request screen and select **Allow** to approve access.
6. Return to nexos.ai. Slack should now show as connected in **My Integrations**.

### Use Slack in Chat (turn it on for a conversation)

1. Open **Chat** (or an Agent chat).
2. Select the **Tools** icon.
3. Turn **Slack** **on** to use it in that conversation.

### Use Slack in Agents (turn it on for an agent)

1. Open **Agents** and select the agent you want to update.
2. Select the **Studio** icon (top-right), then open **Settings**.
3. Scroll to **Integrations** and turn **Slack** **on**.
4. **Save** your changes, then test the agent (for example, “Summarize the latest updates from #general” or “Pull the key decisions from the last thread about Project X”).

**Alternative (quick method)**\
You can also tell the agent in plain language to add the Slack integration (for example, “Add the Slack integration for this agent”), and it will enable Slack for itself automatically so you can continue without leaving the conversation.
