Connect Slack to your desk
Slack connects to DeskCrew when you sign up with Slack — authorizing the install provisions your workspace and links the Slack team.
Connecting
Authorizing the install requests these bot scopes:
chat:writechannels:readchannels:history
Note: Only a Slack workspace admin or owner can bootstrap a brand-new DeskCrew workspace this way. Re-installs only grant access to people who are already members.
How it works once connected
- New tickets post as a thread into your chosen Slack channel.
- Replies sync both ways, so your team can work tickets without leaving Slack.
Manage the connection
- Pick or change the channel that receives tickets at
/dashboard/onboarding(the Integrations page shows a Change channel link for this). - Confirm the connection and team name under Settings → Integrations in the dashboard.
