# Slack

> Chat with Adapt directly in your Slack workspace

![Slack integration](https://mintcdn.com/adapt-fa4ae803/TqVXLLIw_8VWNrel/images/integrations/slack.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=TqVXLLIw_8VWNrel\&q=85\&s=f20837c770a8129ed47aad706810d8eb)

The Slack integration lets you interact with Adapt right where your team already works.

## Setup

**1. Start installation**

Go to **Settings > Integrations > Slack** and click **Connect**

**2. Authorize**

Review permissions and click **Allow** to add Adapt to your workspace

**3. Invite to channels**

Type `/invite @Adapt` in any channel to enable mentions

### Permissions

| Permission | Why It's Needed |
| - | - |
| Read messages | To understand questions and context |
| Send messages | To respond to your questions |
| Access files | To analyze uploaded spreadsheets and documents |
| Search messages | To find relevant conversations when asked |

## Capabilities

Adapt can chat directly in Slack. Send messages, search conversations, and get
answers without leaving your workspace.

### Chat Directly in Slack

This is the only integration where you can have a full conversation with Adapt without opening the web app:

* **Direct messages** to @Adapt for private questions
* **Channel mentions** to share insights with your team
* **Thread replies** to maintain context in discussions

### Examples

Ask questions in Slack:

```
@Adapt What's our current MRR from Stripe?
```

Analyze files:

```
@Adapt Analyze this spreadsheet [attach file]
```

Search conversations:

```
Search Slack for discussions about the new feature launch
```

Post summaries:

```
Post a summary of this analysis to #engineering
```

Schedule reports:

```
Every Monday at 9am, post a weekly sales summary to #sales-team
```

### Huddle transcripts

When a huddle ends in a channel Adapt is in, Adapt posts a speaker-attributed transcript into the huddle thread and keeps a searchable copy:

```
@Adapt what did we decide about pricing in yesterday's huddle?
```

Access is checked against your own Slack membership, so Adapt only surfaces huddles from channels you can already see. See the [Slack app docs](https://v1-docs.adapt.com/docs/platform/slack-app.md#huddle-transcripts) for details and how to turn it off.

### Proactive responses

Adapt doesn't have to wait for an @-mention. Set a plain-English **trigger mode** on any channel or thread and Adapt will decide on its own when to chime in:

```
@Adapt respond to any top-level message reporting a bug.
```

See the [Slack app docs](https://v1-docs.adapt.com/docs/platform/slack-app.md#proactive-responses) for the full setup, available modes, and example policies.
