Start work from Slack
1
Open the connected channel
Use a channel that a Room owner has connected to Sidekick.
2
Mention Sidekick
Mention Sidekick and say what you need. Sidekick reads the Slack thread only when it is mentioned.
3
Continue in the Slack thread
Reply in the same Slack thread to keep working with its existing context.
4
Review it in Sidekick
Open the connected Room to find the thread, its participants, and its activity. Threads that started in Slack carry a Slack marker and can be filtered in the Room.
Know where replies appear
Messages sent from Slack stay connected to that Slack thread and are recorded in Sidekick. Messages added later from the Sidekick web or desktop app are not sent back into Slack. Disconnecting a channel keeps its existing threads in Room history, but those Slack threads cannot resume through a later reconnection.Where to go next
