Can I send briefs to Slack?
Yes. You can deliver Competitive Briefs to a Slack channel using Slack's built-in channel email feature. No integration to install.
To send briefs straight into a channel (requires a paid Slack plan):
- In Slack, open the channel where you want briefs to appear.
- Select the channel name, then Integrations, then Send emails to this channel.
- Copy the channel email address Slack gives you.
- In Competely, open the project and go to step 4 Monitoring. Add the Slack address as a brief recipient.
- Your next brief will post in the channel automatically.
If you'd rather review briefs before they go to a channel:
- In Slack, open your profile picture, then Preferences, then Messages & media.
- Scroll to Bring emails into Slack and select Get a Forwarding Address.
- Add that address as a brief recipient in Competely.
- Briefs arrive in your Slackbot DM. Forward the ones you want to a channel.
If a brief looks faded inside Slack's dark mode, use the email's overflow menu and Open in new tab to read it in full contrast.
