Integrate With Slack

Sortly Ultra, Premium, and Enterprise users can integrate with Slack to receive notifications about changes to their inventory directly in a Slack channel. The following documentation will show how to install and use the integration.

Installation

Click the Slack option from the left-hand menu to start the process.

You will see the following option available:

 

 

Click Connect. This will take you to a new page where you will need to log in to your Slack account and approve permissions for Sortly. Please click Allow to install the integration on your Slack team.

Once that is completed, return to the Slack Settings page in Sortly. The first thing you will need to do is select which channel will receive the Sortly updates. This will be a drop-down menu of your available channels in your Slack team; select the channel and Save Changes.

Next, toggle which event topics you want to hear about in Slack. These are the events that will trigger a post in your Slack channel. Once set, click Save Changes. You can always update these later.

The last step is to go to Slack, browse the channel you selected, and ensure the Sortly app is added to that channel. To do this, select the channel and click on the member list at the top right.

In the Integrations tab of the resulting dialog, make sure the Sortly app is added. If not, click Add Apps and select the Sortly app.
