Connect Slack
AvailabilityConnecting a workspace is done by an organisation owner or admin.
Connecting Slack lets anyone in your workspace ask GoPie about your data — in a direct message, by @mentioning GoPie in a channel, from the assistant pane, or with the /gopie command — and get the answer back in the thread.
Connect your workspace#
You connect Slack from inside GoPie. Always use GoPie's Connect button rather than Slack's own "Install to Workspace" button — connecting from GoPie is what binds the workspace to your organisation.
- Open integration settings — in GoPie, go to Settings → Integrations.
- Start the Slack connection — select Connect on the Slack row.
- Approve the permissions — Slack shows what GoPie can do; review it and select Allow.
- Confirm it connected — back in GoPie, the Slack row now reads Connected, with the workspace name and who connected it.
NoteIf your Slack workspace restricts which apps can be installed, a Slack workspace admin may need to approve GoPie before the connection completes. This is a Slack setting, separate from your GoPie role.
Ask GoPie in Slack#
Once connected, anyone in the workspace can ask:
- Direct message the GoPie app and type your question.
@mentionGoPie in a channel it belongs to — add the app to the channel first so it can see the mention.- Open the assistant pane (Slack's Agents & AI apps view) and ask there.
- Use
/gopiefollowed by your question.
GoPie replies in the thread with a short answer, the table behind it, a chart where it helps, and a link to open the full result in GoPie.
Link your account#
The first time you ask, GoPie replies with a Link account prompt instead of an answer. This connects your Slack identity to your GoPie account so answers run with your own permissions.
- Select Link account — from the prompt GoPie posts on your first question.
- Sign in with Slack — confirm you're signed in to GoPie, then complete the Slack sign-in.
- Ask again — your question now returns a real answer, running as your linked GoPie user.
TipA fresh link can take up to a minute to take effect. If you still see the prompt right after linking, wait a moment and ask again.
You can unlink at any time from Settings → Profile → Linked chat accounts; your next question will ask you to link again.
Preview GoPie links#
When someone pastes a GoPie link — a dataset, dashboard, report, view or chat — into a channel or DM the app can see, it expands into a compact card showing the item's title, type, project and when it was last updated. Only linked members of your organisation see the full card; others get an invitation to connect their account.
Deliver reports to a channel#
Scheduled and one-off reports can be routed to a Slack channel. See Deliver reports to channels.
Disconnect#
To disconnect, return to Settings → Integrations and disconnect the Slack row. This revokes GoPie's access to the workspace and removes the connection.
