How do I use the Slack integration?

Learn about our integration with Slack.

The Learn Amp Platform has an integration with Slack. 

Please note that to use our Slack integration, your company must already have an account with Slack.

What can I do with the Slack integration? 

The Slack integration has two main features:

  1. Carrying out commands within Slack which connect to Learn Amp.

  2. Receiving notifications in Slack about what's happening in the Learn Amp Platform. 

This article will discuss both of these features and explain how you can use them.

 

Section 1: Carrying out commands within Slack which connect to Learn Amp 

You can view the full list of commands on the Slack integration page, on the ‘How to use’ tab.

 

In order to use the integration all you need to do is go onto your Slack, and test out the commands listed above.

E.g.

‘/ la search marketing’ will return items in the Learn Amp Library which match the term Marketing.

 

Type in / la add [article link]

 

You will then get the notification that this item has been added to the Learn Amp Library, and there will be a link for you to fill out the Item's details:
