What does this integration do?
In short, the Slack integration enables your SalesScreen feed posts to be sent to a Slack channel of your choice, in your Slack workspace. This is practical if Slack is your organization's main communication tool and you want a steady flow of your team's activities and achievements populated to Slack.

Prerequisites
You need to have an active SalesScreen subscription in order to add the SalesScreen app for Slack to your team. Furthermore, the integration can only be activated with a SalesScreen admin account.
The Slack user that authorises the integration will need the App Manager privilege.
In SalesScreen
To set up the integration between SalesScreen and Slack, sign in to SalesScreen with an admin user account. Navigate to Settings by clicking Manage > Settings. If you don't see a the Manage button at the bottom left of the screen, it means you're signed in with a non-admin user account.
Once there, go to Integrations and click on Integrate for Slack. Alternatively, this link will take you there directly.
On the next page, click on Add instance, followed by Authorise integration on the next page. This action will initiate the Slack authentication and authorization process, which means you'll be redirected to Slack's login page (if not already signed in).
Once authenticated, Slack will present a summary of what the SalesScreen app is requesting access to.
When ready, click Allow. As a result, SalesScreen will store the integration configurations, and you'll be redirected back to SalesScreen.
That's it! Your SalesScreen account is integrated with your Slack workspace.
Set up workflow(s)
Now that the integration is authorised, you can choose which SalesScreen feed you want to post to Slack. You can customise a Slack specific feed by creating a new feed or select a pre-existing one.
If you want to push feed posts to a private group in Slack, you must first invite the SalesScreen app to that channel.
/invite @salesscreen
Click New to add a new workflow and on the next page, give it a name/description. Then, pick the SalesScreen feed you want to see in Slack and finally select the Slack channel/group that you want to push feed posts to.
Import Users
The integration allows you to import users from your Slack workspace into SalesScreen. As a result, SalesScreen creates an account for each user that is imported. This can be done at your own discretion by navigating to Manage > Settings > Integrations > Manage Slack > Settings > Import Users.
