Execute Slack Actions and Searches Directly from ChatGPT Conversations
Perform Slack administrative tasks and search without leaving your AI console.
Connect your Slack workspace to ChatGPT Business to search conversations and execute actions like joining channels or setting reminders via chat.
The Scenario
You are juggling multiple projects and need to quickly find a file and set a follow-up reminder without leaving your current AI-assisted thinking flow.
Before & after
Joining channels, setting reminders, and searching for specific files across multiple Slack workspaces manually can take 5–10 minutes of context switching and searching.
Using the Slack connector, you can ask ChatGPT to take these actions (e.g., 'Remind me to check this file in 2 hours') in about 10 seconds.
The Prompt
Search my Slack for the latest file regarding [PROJECT_NAME] and create a reminder for me to review it at [TIME]. Then, join the #[CHANNEL_NAME] channel.
Admins must enable Slack connector actions, which allow users to join channels, create reminders, and upload files using natural language.
