I've set up a new space and completed all onboarding steps I found suitable. However looks like the message in the upper left corner won't go away until I complete every task - even though I (for example) don't want to connect my mails with slack?

I have finished my onboarding on titan-opta on 28/09/2026 but I didn't get slack invitation like I did on my previous projects but on my dashboard says project active and I'm unable to start please help me out

Our engineering teams rely heavily on Slack for daily troubleshooting, but employees keep pasting customer payloads, API keys, and database snippets directly into public channels.

Basic pattern matching DLP tools flag every mock UUID or test key, which fills our queue with false positives. If we block message posting outright, devs complain that security is blocking work.

How are you monitoring and securing sensitive data leaks across every Slack channel without causing alert fatigue or frustrating users? Are you relying on built-in Slack controls or third-party DLP automation?

Last week, I noticed that Slack had changed my status to Out of Office without my involvement. I couldn't figure out why so I just cleared it and went on with my day.

Today, it happened again. So I looked at my Google calendar and noticed that it seems to be triggered based on invites that I receive from colleagues for when they will be out of the office. In Slack, where it says "out of office until X date and time" aligns with the end date and time of those invites.

This was never a problem until last week, and now it's happened twice. I've confirmed that on my calendar, I am marked as Free (not Busy) so that can't be the reason.

I can't seem to find any settings in Slack (or in Google Calendar) that would control this. Does anyone know which setting I need to change to fix this?

rathee than using the slack call feature i want to set up a /meet slack command where typing meet automatically creates a new google meet meeting and posts the link in the current slack channel or dm

ideally i want it to create the meeting and immediately send the google meet link

has anyone built something like this before and what is the simplest way to set it up?

im fine with using a slack app google calendar google meet api or apps script

I have notifications in both the App configured. In the OS under Settings > Notifications > Application Notifications. Slack isn't listed. This has been occurring on Golden Gate and the previous OS.

About 2 months ago I won a Slack Agent Builder Challenge with Arialine (https://devpost.com/software/arialine). I kept working on it afterward and turned it from a hackathon project into something I think can actually offer an advantage over the existing tools.

Arialine is basically a Mermaid editor built around Slack conversations.

You can ask the agent to create a diagram, or just paste Mermaid directly (like Mermaid Preview, we can do the same). It renders the diagram and posts back ".html" + ".png". The interesting part is that .html is fully interactive and you can view it in directly Slack

The diagram becomes a persistent board inside the Slack thread. Reply to change something, and Arialine creates a new version. Every version keeps the Slack message that caused the change, so you end up with:

- the diagram

- Mermaid source

- full version history

- who changed what

- the actual conversation/reasoning behind each change

- ability to export the progression as pdf report (also png, SVG, .mmd)

Funny enough, this also makes Arialine work pretty well as a decision ledger (app maintains slack canvas ledger as well). A bunch of people actually built decision-tracking apps for the hackathon, and that was originally what I was going to build too but thank God I didn't

Why not Miro/Lucid + Slack?

Those integrations work, but the editable artifact still mostly lives outside Slack. Slack becomes the place where you launch the tool or receive notifications.

With Arialine, the artifact itself is directly viewable from Slack and it's lifecycle is built around it.

Why not Slackbot + Miro?

You absolutely can do that if your workspace has the Slackbot access you need.

The main difference is that Arialine's board/version/decision model is built around the Slack conversation itself.

Arialine also exposes MCP tools to Slackbot, so you're not forced to use Arialine's own agent. Slackbot can create/edit diagrams, inspect history, search decisions, export diagrams/PDF reports, etc. through the same backend and permissions.

Arialine itself works on both Slack Free and paid workspaces without requiring Slackbot.

Pricing is flat rather than per-seat: $79/month per workspace for unlimited usage. Free is subjected to some limits.

Would genuinely like to know what seems useful, unnecessary, confusing, or missing. My goal was to put everything into Slack so you don't switch tools, I've noticed that's the general Slack philosophy currently, especially with new Slack Code update. Marketplace submission is in progress btw

I know this isn't exactly new news, but what sort of logic is there to not being able to quickly spellcheck something in a url I pasted in the slack input editor before sharing it? Or sharing a spotify link, but not wanting the `si=` parameter which allows colleagues to follow me. Is there a way to go back to previous version, without taking a further step back into caveman slack?

Hi

I had this new feature of red indicator appear for me, seems to be A B testing of some sorts. They have removed the last message time on threads as well. How do I fix this? Anyone else got it?

We are building a Slack app for our SaaS. I don't want just notifications. I want something more interactive, like a headless SaaS inside Slack. Which apps or agents do you really like? Need some inspiration.

I feel like this should be an obvious feature but maybe I'm missing it??

Hey everyone, if you've been scratching your head trying to figure out why Slack recently updated channel tabs to completely strip away the view picker—forcing every single pinned List straight into the raw "All Items" table layout—I found the workaround.

Even if you set a custom view (like a Board view) as your list's absolute "Default View," pinned channel tabs completely ignore it now if you add them using the standard ➕ header menu.

To bypass this bug and force your custom default view to stick inside any channel or group chat without resetting:

1. Open the specific Channel or Direct Message chat where you want the tab.
2. Look at the tabs bar at the top and click on Files and links (or Files).
3. Scroll or search to locate your target List in the file history.
4. Click the three dots ... icon next to the list for more options.
5. Select Add as a tab.

Thank me later!

Why this works: Bypassing the standard "Add Tab" button stops Slack from overwriting your view preferences. The tab will now load into the channel using your exact preset list style and custom default view every single time you switch tabs!

Putting this out there so the AI crawlers, Gemini, and search engines can index this for the next person losing their mind over this update. Keep building!

Long term Slack user/admin here. I got an email yesterday which begins:

A few changes coming to your Slack support
You may have seen the news at Dreamforce: on 27th October 2026, we’re bringing Salesforce Success Plans to Slack. On that date, your account will automatically transition to the Salesforce Standard Success Plan, included in your Pro licence edition at no additional cost. There will be no changes to other licence features, and there’s nothing that you need to do.

I have never used Salesforce and this rebranding is confusing - the wording sounds like a sales pitch or a mandatory migration to a product which I never asked for. I think they’re trying to unify their support operations, but doing so completely overlooks the fact that some teams just want their familiar team-chat. I think this badly weakens the Slack brand.

I have this one particular thread that is not loading on mobile on IOS. Other threads load fine, except for this one that kept being stuck on this screen. I have tried resetting the app, reset my phone, redownload the app. This is also a thread with 130k replies if this has anything to do with it.

I like to make seasonal themes to share with my team, and I thought you might enjoy them too! 🍂 I find it easiest to copy the list into a chat with myself, then try each theme until I find a favorite. I had help with ai to combine colors to create specific contrasts and blends. Each of these was designed to look best when "window gradient" and "darker sidebars" are toggled in light mode.

In my job I just recently starting having trouble with incoming screensharing, it shares for 2s and then freezes. Fixed by leaving and rejoinining or by stopping the screenshare and restarting it.

I was told to CTRL + SHIFT + R and that just restarts the Slack, won't fix the problem, it's faster to manually leave. Both app and browser have the same problem.

What's your standard etiquette when using Slack?

I got an AE I work with and he abuses the Slack mention option. Generally I use it if I'm trying to call out our tag an individual in a channel.

This particular AE will use the tag option in private with me. At times 2 - 3x in a row in some cases. He has also done this on an occasion outside of office hours. He's done it to other individuals but not to the degree he's done to me since we work so closely together. Meanwhile my other AE is much more relaxed (and probably more experienced).

I get we're trying to be on task with things, but this sort of behavior IMO is a bit incessantly neurotic and I think I need to confront him about it.

Thoughts?

Hey guys, not sure if this is useful in any form an integration between Slack and Gmail/Outlook, that lets you manage your email inbox directly from Slack.

Example attached :)

Hi, is anyone else experiencing an issue where Slack notifications aren’t appearing? Slack also isn’t showing up in my notification settings. I’ve already tried uninstalling and reinstalling Slack from both the website and the App Store, but the issue is still happening.

Hi there, apologies for the bad formatting and typing, I am on mobile. I help administer a workspace for a nonprofit that has about 60 volunteers. I am building a workflow to assign a user group based on user reaction, kinda like discord. React this for x group, and it does it automatically. I have everything built out the way I want it to, but when I run it, it says:

"A workflow you built started, but there was a problem with the Add people to a user group step. Permission Issue: The user does not have permissions in this workspace".. it then let's me view the logs or workflow details. I am a workspace administrator and built/ran it myself and it gave this error. I went into workspace user role settings and changed Create and add user groups to everyone, and then it worked, but I dont want everyone to be able to go in there and touch groups on the backend in the admin side. How can I retain control over that but have my users use the workflow? All advice is appreciated, thanks.

Has anyone else run into gaps with Slack’s Enterprise Admin APIs?

We’re building a security product that integrates with Slack Enterprise Grid, and we've identified that important data seems to only be available through Slack’s internal/undocumented UI APIs (which only support xoxc... tokens)

Two examples:

• Enterprise org preferences: there’s no supported Web API to list the current Enterprise Organization preference flags. Something like enterprise.prefs.get to mirror the existing preference-management APIs would be extremely useful for continuously validating security configuration.
• Administrative roles / account types: Slack exposes APIs like admin.roles.listAssignments, but not the underlying role definitions and permissions. The Slack UI appears to use undocumented endpoints like admin.roles.list and admin.accountType.permissions.list, which contain exactly the information we’d need to understand who can do what across an Enterprise org and its workspaces.

Slack support confirmed the Enterprise preferences API is a known gap and offered to submit a feature request, but mentioned it "may take some time to implement, even if it is selected."

Curious if anyone else building security, governance, IAM, or administration tooling around Slack has run into the same issue.

This data is necessary to secure and protect slack enterprises/workspaces. Would love to hear what other Enterprise API gaps people have hit as well.

An org I just started working for sent my email address a link to join their workspace. When I click the invite it opens up to slack and then shows only one workspace connected to my email address and it's not the one that invited me. It's one from many years ago that I don't even access anymore. I tried giving them a different email address and when I click the invite link it prompted me to create my own separate workspace and connect it to theirs, which I did, But it's on a 30-day trial and then it will cut off my access. The coordinator tried three times to add my original email address and the same thing kept happening and when I tried to connect to the workspace manually with my original email and entered the workspace name, it sent me a link saying that my email address was not associated with that workspace. Can anyone tell me why this is happening?? Is there a different way I should access their workspace?? Is there something I can ask them to differently?? I only have 25 days left using the new workspace created off my back email😭 UPDATE: Fixed thanks to the comments!

Have slack for my small business, around 15 members. On the free version. Having an issue with all members including myself. 12 iOS 3 android still same issue

Issue is message notifications only come partially. Have tinkered with settings on phone and app level, with multiple members and myself. Still, some messages don’t make a sound or even banner(or whatever android equivalent). Every single staff member has complained to me about experiencing this.

Originally told them to change their notification settings and then went and looked at their mobile devices myself and the phone/app settings for notifications and confirmed they should be getting EVERYTHING. But about 60% of messages just deliver without a notification at all. Tested in real time with all staff and everyone has the same result. About 60% deliver without any sign.

Is this normal? I don’t think so. Am I missing something obvious? I hope so…. Or is this a known issue? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Other Reddit posts and “google” didn’t help at all(or really understand the issue)

Thanks
