Slack Integration
Connect your Slack workspace to FeatureVote for real-time notifications
Connect your Slack workspace to FeatureVote and receive real-time notifications about feature voting activity directly in your channels.
What You’ll Get
Once connected, FeatureVote can notify your Slack channel when:
- New feature requests are submitted
- Features reach vote milestones (5, 10, 25, 50, 100)
- New comments are added
- Features are marked as shipped
You control which events are sent and which channel receives them.
Set Up in 2 Minutes
1. Connect Slack
- Go to Settings → Integrations
- Click Connect to Slack
- Authorize FeatureVote in your Slack workspace
2. Invite the Bot to Your Channel
In Slack, open the channel where you want notifications and run:
/invite @Featurevote
This step is required — the bot must be invited before it can post messages.
3. Choose the Channel
- Return to Settings → Integrations
- Select the Slack channel
- Save your changes
That’s it 🎉 You’ll start receiving notifications in Slack.
Customize Notifications (Optional)
You can toggle notifications for:
- Feature submissions
- Feature completions
- Comments
- Vote milestones (5, 10, 25, 50, 100)
Changes take effect immediately.
