# How to Add SmartAgents to Your Slack Channels

Learn how you can add SmartAgents to your slack channels to receive campaign related data in your Slack

If you’re using Slack inside your SmartAgents workflows, you must add SmartAgents to the Slack channel where you want to receive messages, alerts, or reports.

Without this step, Slack won’t deliver any automation output from Smartlead.

The good news: it takes less than a minute.

## **Why This Step Is Required**

Whenever your workflow includes a Slack step (e.g., “Send message to Slack” or “Send report to Slack”), Slack will only deliver those messages to channels where the SmartAgents app has been added.

You only need to connect your Slack workspace to Smartlead **once**, but adding SmartAgents to specific channels must be done **per channel**.

Slack gives you two ways to add an app to a channel.

You can use whichever feels faster.

## **Method 1 - Add SmartAgents using the** **/apps** **command**

Open the Slack channel where you want to receive SmartAgent messages.

In the message box, type:  
/apps

Slack will open the **Add apps to this channel** panel.

Search for **SmartAgents**.

Click **Add**.

That’s it - SmartAgents is now allowed to send messages into this channel.

## **Method 2 - Add SmartAgents from Channel Settings**

Open the Slack channel.

Click the channel name at the top.

Go to **Integrations**.

Click **Add an app**.

Search for **SmartAgents** and add it.

Both methods do the same thing - pick whichever is easier.

## **How to Confirm SmartAgents Is Added Correctly**

You can quickly check whether the app is added:

1.  Type /apps again
    
2.  Search for **SmartAgents**
    
3.  If Slack shows **View**, instead of **Add**, the app is already added to that channel.
    

## **Using Slack in Your Automations**

When building or editing a SmartAgent workflow, you’ll see Slack as an action option.  
Once SmartAgents is added to the Slack channel, simply:

1.  Choose Slack as the step inside your automation
    
2.  Select the channel you want to send messages to
    
3.  Save and deploy the workflow
    

Slack will now deliver messages from your automations into that specific channel.

## **Important Notes**

-   You **only connect your Slack workspace to Smartlead once** (global connection).
    
-   You **must add SmartAgents to each Slack channel individually** if you want that channel to receive automation output.
    
-   If you switch channels later, you’ll need to repeat the “Add app” step for the new channel.
