Slack

The Slack integration brings Supervisible requests and project context into Slack while keeping Supervisible as the source of truth.

What Slack Enables

Slack features
Direct notifications
Send enabled notification types as Slack DMs.
Approvals
Approve or reject time-off and project-hour requests from Slack messages.
Slash commands

Use /supervisible timeoff, /supervisible timeoff digest, /supervisible status, and /supervisible link.

OOO channel

Post approved time-off announcements and scheduled weekly OOO digests to a configured channel.

Project channels

Map a project to a channel for project updates and date-change notifications.

Link previews

Unfurl Supervisible project, client, and user links into Slack work objects.

Setup

  1. Go to Settings -> Integrations.
  2. Install Slack.
  3. Sync users by email, or ask users to run /supervisible link to check their account link.
  4. Ask users to enable Slack channels in Notification Preferences.
  5. Optional: configure the OOO channel in Settings -> Time Off.
  6. Optional: map project channels from a project notification bell.

Slash Commands

CommandWhat it does
/supervisible timeoffOpens a Slack modal for creating a time-off request.
/supervisible timeoff digestPosts this week's team time-off summary to the current channel.
/supervisible statusShows your pending requests, upcoming time off, and active project context.
/supervisible linkChecks whether your Slack account is linked to Supervisible.

Approvals

Slack approval buttons acknowledge quickly, then update Supervisible in the background. Rejecting a request opens a modal to collect a reason.

OOO Announcements

When an approved request qualifies for announcement, Supervisible can post a message to the configured OOO Slack channel. Scheduled weekly digests can summarize people currently out, leaving soon, recently returned, and public holidays. Admins can choose the leaving-soon and recently-returned windows from Settings -> Time Off.

Privacy

Slack notifications respect Supervisible roles and each user's notification channel settings. Sensitive time-off details stay hidden where the app hides them.
