Mention teammates and more ways to launch from Slack

The latest updates from the Missions.ai — Messaging based workflows for Slack

A few weeks ago we announced a bundle of improvements to Missions. Today we’re happy to pile on a few more. With these changes, we’ve made it easy to mention teammates in your workflows, and we’ve made it easier to share and launch Missions in Slack.

Pick People 🙆

The dynamic data and emoji pickers were lonely so we added a new people picker when authoring messages.

Launch Improvements

It’s even easier to launch Missions from within Slack now. Oh let’s count the ways! 1️⃣ 2️⃣ 3️⃣ 4️⃣

1️⃣ Your Missions via /missions

Launch any Mission you are a collaborator of via the updated /missions slash command. Type to filter if there’s bountiful amount 👌.

All your Mission at your fingertips

2️⃣ From specific channels

Install a Mission in a specific channel and find them under “This Channel” from /missions:

Make specific Missions only available in certain channels

Or make a button “persistent” and the button message will bump to the bottom of the channel. So you can tell your mates to “go to #help-office-supplies channel to request office supplies,” and it will be obvious what you mean 😘.

Persistent button messages meander to the bottom of the channel

3️⃣ To everyone from anywhere

Some workflows should be available from anywhere, so for those important Missions, make them available from any channel and find them under “Team Missions.”

Team Missions are available from any channel for anyone

4️⃣ Sharing is caring

Easily share a link to a Mission in a message, and we’ll add a launch button automatically 👭.
