Slack Integration with Mesh

Integrate your Mesh account with Slack for sharing activity in your company's Slack channels.

Integrating Mesh with Slack allows your employees to keep up with your Mesh activity through your company's Slack channels. Mesh will push updates to your Slack whenever a user receives public Feedback, updates a public Goal, is prompted to complete a Review, or posts a public Update.

‍By bringing Mesh to Slack, you can see when someone creates, updates or completes any goal or initiative in one place without ever leaving the app. In particular,

• 🎯 Get updated when a new goal is created and what business objectives they’re aligned to
• ✍️ View activity of what initiative your team members will deliver on
• 💁 See collaborative action of which team members will be working on projects and initiatives together
• 🔔 Get notified whenever goals and initiatives are completed so you can go back and appreciate your colleagues for a job well done
• 📆 Easily see when deadlines have been updated or extended
• ✌️Whenever anyone updates an initiative or goal, it’ll also show on Slack
• 👀 Check your upcoming 1:1s and set agenda items straight from Slack 

‍Now, to begin with the integration, follow the below steps. (To set up your company Slack integration, make sure you're an admin on both your Mesh and Slack accounts)
