Slack is one of the delivery channels an Agent routine can send its results to. Connect your workspace once, and any routine can post its run digest straight into a Slack channel — alongside (or instead of) the in-app transcript and email digest.
Slack delivery is part of the Autron Agent plan and is set up per company — one connected workspace covers your whole team. You’ll need permission to add an app to your Slack workspace; some workspaces require a Slack admin to approve it.
Connect your Slack workspace
In the Autron Agent app, open Settings → Integrations.
On the Slack row, click Add to Slack.
Slack asks you to review the permissions and pick your workspace. Approve, and you’re returned to Autron with the workspace marked Connected.
That’s it — the connection is saved for your whole company, and the Integrations page shows the connected workspace’s name so you can confirm which Slack you’re linked to.
One workspace per company. Autron connects a single Slack workspace at a time. Connecting a different one replaces the previous connection; routines that pointed at a channel in the old workspace stop delivering to Slack until you repoint them.
Send a routine’s results to Slack
Once Slack is connected, add it to any routine:
Open the routine (or create a new one) and find the Channels section.
Click Add channel → Slack channel.
Pick a channel from the list, or paste a channel ID. You can add more than one.
After every meaningful run, Autron posts a digest card to each Slack channel — the run status, a short summary, and links to open the full transcript and the routine. Use send test to post a sample first.
Public vs private channels. Autron can post to any public channel without being invited. For a private channel, invite the bot first — type /invite @Autron in that channel — otherwise it won’t appear in the picker and can’t post there.
What Autron can and can’t do in Slack
The integration is deliberately narrow — it only needs to post digests and list channels so you can choose where they go:
Post messages to the channels you pick (and to public channels without an invite).
List channels and read the workspace name — to populate the channel picker and show which workspace is connected.
Delivery is strictly one-way. Autron does not read your messages, search your workspace, or access DMs — it only sends routine digests to the channels you choose.
The View transcript and Open routine buttons on a digest card may show a small “app not configured for interactive responses” note when clicked. That’s expected for one-way delivery — the links still open normally.
Disconnect Slack
In Settings → Integrations, open the connected Slack row and choose Disconnect. This revokes Autron’s access to the workspace. Any routine that was delivering to a Slack channel simply skips Slack after that — its other channels (in-app, email, custom webhook) are unaffected. Reconnect any time to resume.
Troubleshooting
Symptom | What to do |
Slack shows as Not connected, or a routine stopped posting to Slack | The workspace authorization was removed or expired. Reconnect from Settings → Integrations → Add to Slack. |
A private channel isn’t in the picker | Invite the bot to that channel — |
The channel list is empty | Click Refresh in the picker. If it stays empty, the workspace may have been disconnected — reconnect it. |
There’s no Add to Slack button | Slack isn’t enabled on your Autron environment yet, or you’re on the free tier. Slack delivery is part of the Agent plan. |
