Getting Started: Gathering the Team
In order to enable the Slack integration, you must have a user who has both Slack administrator credentials (i.e. someone who can approve applications) and WorkRamp admin access.
Note: This integration is only available for our Employee Learning Cloud platform.
Enabling Slack in WorkRamp
To get started with the setup, navigate to Settings > Integrations > Slack and click either "Enable" button which will redirect you to Slack to authenticate the integration.
Once enabled, you have the ability to enable automatic notifications to users and/or congratulatory messages to channels via Slackbot.
To publish updates to your Slack Instance, click "Add New". Then select the Content folder(s) from your WorkRamp instance, and a public channel within your Slack instance.
Based on the notification settings above, activity on the content within the selected folder will post updates to the selected channel.
Note: For reminder messages, we recommend adding the Workramp app to your Slack account.

Enable direct messages on training reminders
These are messages sent directly through the workramp app to individuals notifying them when they have been assigned a training (includes guides

, paths
) and a reminder of when it's due. The only automatic reminder messages are sent based on your Email Settings.
