Slack

The Slack app allows you to display a live feed of Slack channel messages on your screens. Push content directly from the Slack interface or automatically pull messages from public Slack channels.

Using the Slack App

Note: Before following these steps, ensure you're logged into Slack.

1. Log into Enplug.
2. Use the App drop-down menu at the top of your dashboard to locate the Slack app. 
3. Authorize Enplug to access your Slack Team Workspace by clicking Connect Your Slack Team Workspace. 
4. In the prompted window, enter the desired Slack URL.
5. Click Allow.
6. Add the Slack app to your Display Group by clicking the plus icon next to the Display Group(s) to which you want to deploy the app. 
7. Click Save Changes.

Note: You may only add public channels, not private channels or direct messages.

Adding Content to the Slack App

Once you've authorized Enplug to access your Slack workspace and added the app to your Display Group(s), you'll need to name your feed and choose what content to display.

Next, open Settings to toggle the Pre-Approval option on or off and change the Profanity Filter.

To add channels to import posts to your feed:

1. Type the channel name in the Add Channels section.
2. Browse all the channels in your workplace by clicking See All.
3. Add a channel to your feed by checking the plus icon next to the channel and click Select.

To manage who can post messages to your feed, use the Allow Slack Team Workspace Users to Post Any Message to This Feed toggle. 

Manage the appearance of your Slack app display by using Image Formatting and the Style Your Feed section.

Notes: 

• Types of media that can be displayed from the Slack App include images, videos, text, emojis, and web links (with content previews).
• Slack channels must be public in order to be shared to a feed.
• Third-party app posts with a content preview won't post to your Slack feed.
