Bridge Your Communication Gap with Slack Connector Actions

Execute Slack actions like reminders and uploads directly from ChatGPT.

Connect the Slack app in ChatGPT Business to perform actions like uploading files, joining channels, or creating reminders without leaving the conversation.

ChatGPT

The Scenario

You are brainstorming a project plan in ChatGPT and realize you need to share the final summary to a specific Slack channel and set a reminder for the team. Rather than leaving the chat, you want to execute these actions immediately.

Before & after

The old way

You would have to switch apps, find the correct channel, and manually click buttons like 'upload' or 'create reminder.' This context switching takes 2-5 minutes per task.

With AI

Type '@Slack' in ChatGPT to join channels, upload files, or set reminders. These administrative tasks now take 10-30 seconds of typing instead of manual navigation.

The Prompt

@Slack [ACTION: e.g., create a reminder/upload this file] to [CHANNEL_NAME] about [TOPIC/CONTENT].

ChatGPT Business now supports Slack connector actions. This means you can stay within your chat interface to manage your Slack workspace, provided your admin has enabled the necessary OAuth scopes.
