Do I need to be an administrator to use Slack in Skyller?

To connect the company integration, yes. To connect just for yourself, no: anyone can install a personal connection within the plan's limit and use it in their own conversations.

Do I use my Slack account or a company account?

Yours: Slack asks for a sign-in to the service account, and each person signs in with their own. The credential is stored encrypted and only you see it. That is what keeps, inside Slack, the record of who did what.

Does Skyller do everything on that action list?

The list is what the vendor offers. What the AI uses in your company is what the administrator turned on, for the groups they defined — Skyller never widens the connector's access.

Does an action in Slack happen without anyone approving it?

Reads happen within permission. Write actions have a risk level; sensitive ones show a confirmation card before running and are recorded. The company adjusts the classification when needed.

Slack does not show up in my company's catalog.

The administrator may have hidden the integration for your company, or the vendor may have discontinued it — in that case it leaves the catalog on the next synchronization, without deleting what was already connected. Talk to whoever administers Skyller in your company.

Is talking to Skyller through Slack the same thing?

No. This page is about Slack as a tool: the AI reads and writes in it through the enabled actions. Receiving and answering Skyller's messages inside Slack is a conversation channel, contracted as a credits add-on, with a limit per plan.

Communication and chat

Slack is a channel-based messaging platform. With Slack, people can work together more effectively, connect all their software tools and services, and find the information they need to do their best work - all within a secure, enterprise-grade environment.

APPROVAL BY RISK

sensitive actions show a card before running

Live proof

One request, two real Slack actions and one approval.

The scene uses actions the vendor publishes for Slack. In your company, only the functions turned on by the administrator come into play.

Input
A team member asks, in the conversation, for something that today requires opening Slack — inside their area's space, with their login.
What Skyller does
1. 01Picks, among the enabled functions, the action “Fetch conversation history” and queries Slack with the person's own credential.
2. 02If the request requires writing — for example, “Send message” —, shows the card with what it is about to do and waits for Approve.
3. 03Returns the result in the conversation and records who asked, which action was used and when.
Result
Slack stops being an open tab and starts answering inside the conversation — through the functions your company enabled.

What this scene does not promise

Both actions come from the vendor's catalog; in your company only the functions turned on by the administrator are available.
If a write action is not classified as sensitive, it may run without a card; the classification is adjustable by the company.
Being in this catalog does not mean being installed, with a valid login, working in your company.

Illustrative scene with fictitious data; the actions mentioned exist in the vendor's catalog.

Where this helps your work

Slack inside the conversation where the work happens.

Three common situations for people who use Slack every day. What Skyller does in each one depends on the functions your company turns on.

Needing to know what was agreed

“What did they decide in the project channel yesterday?”

The person asks and Skyller reads the channel in Slack with their login, only in the channels they belong to, and summarizes what was agreed.

Channel summary in the conversation

Notifying the team

“Tell the team the new policy has been published.”

Posting a message is a write action: Skyller shows the card with channel and text and only sends it in Slack after Approve.

Message with approval

Administering

“A tool is one thing. A conversation channel is another.”

Here Slack is a tool: the AI reads and writes in it through the enabled functions. Talking to Skyller from inside Slack is a channel, contracted separately.

What the vendor offers in Slack.

Names as the vendor publishes them, in English, with the description summarized to its first sentence. In your company, the administrator turns on only the necessary actions; none of them runs without permission, and sensitive ones go through approval.

Before you start

What your company needs to use Slack.

Login: Each person signs in to their own Slack account. Skyller guides the sign-in and stores the credential encrypted, visible only to the person who created it.
Who installs: An administrator connects Slack for the company and shares it with people or groups. Anyone can connect just for themselves, within the plan's limit.
Functions: 158 published actions: the administrator turns on only the necessary ones. Sensitive ones ask for confirmation before running.
Plan: Counts as a company or personal connection within the plan's allowance; the larger plans have no cap. The connections-per-plan table is on the catalog page.
