Setup

Start using this feature by clicking on the Schedule to Slack button at any report page.

You will be redirected to Slack authorization page and asked for a Slack team you want to send to. This authorization process is required for any user since Holistics can only post to Slack channels which user has access to.

Selecting Team

The first authorization with Slack requires an admin role. This authorization determines the Slack team connecting to the Holistics tenant. A Holistics tenant can connect to only 1 Slack team at a time.
