Using the Slack integration

To use the Slack integration, simply type one of the available Slash commands after typing the prefix command you assigned in Step 1 of the Slack integration settings. In our example, we are using /clientspace.

Note:  Sharing data in a Group Channel - When returning data to a group channel using the following commands, the returned information will be visible only to you, unless you explicitly use the -share command. If you include -share in your request, the returned data will be visible to anyone in the Slack channel. Example: /clientspace mycases -share

The following is a list of available commands that can be used in Slack to retrieve ClientSpace information:
