Slack - Getting Started Guide
Slack
- Setup using Beeper Desktop: Select Slack on Chat Networks (from the Gear icon menu on the top left of the desktop Beeper app), click Get Started, follow the instructions, and log in to your Slack account in the window that opens. You might also be prompted to select a workspace to bridge.
- Setup using Beeper Android: Select Slack on Chat Networks (from the Gear icon menu on the top right of the Beeper Android app → Network Connections and follow the instructions to log in to your Slack account.
- It may take 30 minutes to sync your Slack messages into Beeper initially. Unfortunately, there is no timer to tell you when it's done, so you just need to wait.
Network Functionality Limitations:
- Some Slack workspaces which use two-factor authenticators like Okta cannot be connected to Beeper
- Slack Connect is not fully supported
- Large Workspaces: Current bridge is not suitable for large workspaces. We are working on it.
Frequently Asked Questions:

- Yes. DMs will be displayed in the main Inbox; Slack channels will appear in the workspace icon in the left bar.
-
Can you bridge multiple workspaces?
- Yes, but you have to set them up one at a time.
