Slack

Chat and collaborate with Opulent directly in your company Slack

Tag @Opulent in Slack as soon as bugs, feature requests, and questions come in. Opulent responds in-thread with updates and questions when it's tagged — so your team can start Sessions from any channel, triage what comes in, post status back to the thread, and route approvals without leaving Slack.

Get started

Installation

1. Go to Settings > Connections > Slack
2. Click "Connect"
3. You'll be prompted to install the Opulent app for Slack in your workspace
4. Make sure to link your individual user. All users in your organization will need to complete this step to use Opulent.
5. Tag @Opulent in Slack to start a session

Note: If your user account is not properly connecting, ensure that your Slack email is the same as your email in https://platform.opulentia.ai/settings. If not, please authenticate the correct email on Slack.

How to use Opulent from Slack

Once you've installed the Opulent integration for Slack, simply trigger Opulent with @Opulent in any channel. You may include attachments to your message.

Opulent will respond in-thread to your session. Now, you can communicate back and forth as you would in the regular chat interface — ask follow-ups, share more context, or approve a proposed change right where the conversation is happening.

Note that Opulent may make mistakes. Please double-check responses.

To do so, simply click "Enable Slack notifications" in the menu at the top of any session. This is how you keep status posted back to the people who need it without watching the dashboard.
