Integrate Lattice with a private channel for permission purposes or to test the integration before making it public.
Before you start
You must be an admin in both Lattice and Slack to integrate with the Lattice Slack App.
To learn more about the functionality of the Lattice Slack App, check out Integrate with Slack.
Integrate with a private channel
Create a private channel in Slack.
Set up the Slack integration in Lattice.
On the Integrations settings page, under Communication Integrations, input the private Slack channel name under the tools you want to feed into the channel.
You can choose a Slack channel for Updates, Feedback, Goals, and Pulse. The channel you type in for each tool can be the same or unique.
If you don't want to receive notifications for a specific tool, leave the channel textbox empty.
To make tool-specific Slack channel feeds, add a different channel for each tool.
To invite the Lattice Slackbot within the private channel, type @lattice into the Slack channel and send.
Slackbot will send a confirmation message - Confirm by selecting Invite them to join.
Invite your organization
When you are ready to invite the rest of your organization to Lattice in Slack, create a new public channel, update the channel's name on your Lattice Integrations page, and then invite your employees to the Slack channel.
