Install our integration for Slack to get notified of your team's activity, and get your questions answered easily using commands.

##  1. Installing integration to Slack in Archbee

At this step you have installed Archbee App in Slack (2.) but you didn't connect your account in Archbee:

Here is what you can do:

1\. Create your Archbee account here [Signup](https://app.archbee.com/signup);
2\. Invite teammates here [Teams](https://app.archbee.com/settings/teams);
3\. On the [Integrations](https://app.archbee.com/settings/team-integrations) page, click on **Connect Slack Account**;
4\. Click Authorize. Now Archbee is integrated to Slack!

##  2. Add Archbee Slack App 

1. Go to Slack app directory and Search Archbee App -  [https://slack.com/apps/search?q=archbee](https://slack.com/marketplace/search?q=archbee)
2. Go to Slack Archbee App and click **Add to Slack**

3. Click Authorize. Now Slack is integrated to Archbee!

##  3. Test integration

1. Go to any slack channel and type  `/archbee help` command and you will receive following message from Archbee Bot.

         2\. By default Archbee Bot will post events in Archbee Bot Messages TAB

But if you want to change a slack channel you can use in the selected channel `/archbee subscribe` or  `/archbee unsubscribe`

:::hint{type="info"}
You need to invite the Archbee Bot to your subscribed slack channel to receive events. (ex: /invite @Archbee)
:::



## How it works?

In the Slack channel you will get a feed with the following team events:

- invited new members
- when a document is shared via a Public Link
- a document is moved between Spaces or archived
- when a Space is made public.

You can also use the `/archbee` command to run a deep search on your Organization documents directly from Slack.
`An example: ``/archbee integrations`

Now you will receive a list of documents you can open directly from Slack.

If you configured the integration between Archbee and Open AI:

You can also use the `/archbee ai` or `/archbee ask` command to run a ML search on your Organization documents directly from Slack.
`An example: ``/archbee ask What is Docker?` or `/archbee ask What is Archbee?`
