Use Feature Upvote with Slack

Slack has become dominant amongst business-oriented chat apps, and so we’ve added a Slack integration to Feature Upvote.

How our Slack integration works

When your customers make new suggestions or comments, you are notified via a designated Slack channel. There’s a View button that links to the suggestion.

This is in keeping with our philosophy of keeping things simple, both for you and for your customers.

How to integrate with Slack

The Slack team have done an outstanding job in making integrations easy to set up. That allowed us to make it straightforward for you to connect Feature Upvote with your Slack workspace:

  • On your Feature Upvote dashboard, go to Products -> Configure -> Integrations.
  • Find Slack in the list of available integrations.
  • Click Enable, and then click Add to Slack.
  • You’ll be redirected to Slack’s website. Here you select a channel for notifications and click Authorize.

Our Slack Integration is a work in progress

Although well-tested and documented and fully working, we consider this ‘version 1.0’ of our Slack integration. That’s because a lot of teams use Slack and in different ways. Our integration might not be a perfect solution for everyone. We’d like to hear from you if there’s something about our Slack integration that doesn’t quite work for you.

Tell us at support@featureupvote.com what you’d like to see added to our Slack integration.
