Choosing the right integrations<br />

Similar to channels, your key team members should experiment with adding<br />

and configuring different integrations.<br />

How to add integrations<br />

Typically, it’s best to add integrations to specific channels only. We<br />

recommend having notifications from apps you integrate with feed into the<br />

channel that’s most relevant to the app. For example: You would want your<br />

Help Scout integration to feed into your customer support channel, but not<br />

your developer channel.<br />

Integrations we use<br />

Trello - Integrating Slack with Trello will send updates to a channel when<br />

there’s activity on Trello cards.<br />

Help Scout - Integrating Slack with Help Scout allows you to see<br />

notifications when:<br />

• A conversation is created<br />

• A conversation is updated<br />

• A team member or customer has replied<br />

• Conversations are closed or deleted<br />

Twitter - This is great for keeping on top of your social media marketing or<br />

<strong>quick</strong>ly responding to customers who communicate with you on Twitter.<br />

Google Drive - Pasting the link to a Google Doc in your chatbox will make<br />

it available for anyone in the channel and give additional information on<br />

the link instead of just a blind URL.<br />
