WeMachines in Slack

Mention @WeMachines in a channel. It files the task, or answers from your team’s workspace.

An admin connects it in Settings → Slack · Free plan included

Two things, in the thread

  • Files the task“@WeMachines open a ticket for this.” It reads the thread and writes a real task - specific title, the substance of what was said, attributed to whoever asked.
  • Answers from the workspace“@WeMachines what’s blocking the launch?” It looks the work up and replies in the thread, never in the channel’s main flow.

Installing it

  1. 01Open your WeMachines workspaceFree for up to 10 people. Creating one takes a team name.
  2. 02Settings → Slack → Add to SlackAn admin starts it. Slack asks which workspace to install into, and you approve there.
  3. 03Invite it to a channelType /invite @WeMachines wherever you want it. It sees those channels and no others.
  4. 04Mention itThere is no slash command. @WeMachines is how you reach it.

It starts knowing nothing. How much of the workspace the bot may say out loud in Slack is an admin setting - because the channel is the audience, not the person asking.

Off Default. Files tasks, answers questions about WeMachines itself.
Limited Adds the board - tasks, statuses, members.
All Adds discussions, documents, team chat, huddle summaries.
