Connecting Slack lets Indent work alongside your team in the tool you already talk in, and link long-running work back to a session in the web app.
Connect Slack
Connect your workspace
Open Settings → Slack and connect your workspace. This is an organization install and may need an administrator’s approval. You can link your personal Slack account on the same page.
Invite Indent to a channel
In the channel you want to use, run /invite @indent.
Start working
Mention @indent with a request. Indent replies in a thread and links long-running work as a
session.
Slack connects at organization scope — your whole team shares the one workspace connection.
