Install the Kubiya App for Slack
Kubiya AI Teammates can be triggered to execute tasks in 3 ways, depending on the task:
- Time-based jobs (cron jobs)
- Events (webhooks)
- On command (via conversation)
For tasks that are triggered on command, you and members of your organization can chat with your AI Teammates straight from Slack.
After installation, you can interact with your AI Teammates directly in Slack. See the usage guide to learn how to work with your teammates.
How it works
The organization Slack OAuth2 token will be passed to the container environment, allowing Slack-based requests to the agent to be able to interact with the Slack API in order to send messages, create channels, etc.
The best way to get started with Kubiya is using the direct integration within Slack which ensures a streamlined and enhanced user experience, enabling you and your team to interface with the virtual assistant without requiring platform switching.
Don't worry - after installing the app for Slack you'll still be able to access the management interface.
