Perform Slack Actions Directly Inside Your ChatGPT Conversation

Execute Slack tasks directly from your chat interface.

Enable and use Slack connector actions to perform administrative tasks like joining channels or creating reminders without leaving the ChatGPT interface.

ChatGPT

The Scenario

You are in the middle of a deep-thinking session with ChatGPT and realize you need to set a team reminder or upload a generated file to a specific Slack channel.

Before & after

The old way

Manually opening Slack, finding the correct channel, and executing an action like creating a reminder or uploading a file takes 3–5 minutes of context switching.

With AI

With the Slack connector, you can ask ChatGPT to perform the task directly, which takes less than 1 minute to type and execute.

The Prompt

Using the Slack connector, please [ACTION_E.G._CREATE_A_REMINDER] for [USER] at [TIME] to check the status of the [PROJECT_NAME] file.

This integration allows ChatGPT Business users to go beyond just searching Slack; they can now take actions like joining channels or updating profiles. Note that some actions may require admin OAuth approval.
