Slack

The things that need a person, in the channel where people already are.

An approval waiting, a payment that failed, a bank connection needing a new sign-in. These reach the channel you choose rather than sitting unseen until somebody happens to look.

Notification only. Nothing is read out of Slack, and no conversation is imported.

Connecting Slack in SigmaPointPi
Connections. Every integration is added and managed here.

Questions people actually ask

Can it read our messages?

No. It posts to the one channel you chose and reads nothing.

Will it be noisy?

Only the things that need a person appear by default. Everything else stays in the product.
