Connecting Slack

Connect Slack to send automated messages from your Klang flows directly to Slack channels or team members.

What you can do with Slack

The Slack integration works as an output in flows. When a flow runs, Klang can post results to a Slack channel or send a direct message to a specific person. Common uses include:

• Sending a transcription summary to a team channel after a meeting is processed
• Notifying a colleague with key points from an uploaded file
• Posting analysis results to a project channel automatically

Connect your account

1. In the top-left corner, click the Klang button to open the menu

2. Click Integrations
3. Find Slack and click Add
4. Review the permissions Klang needs and click Approve. Klang requests access to read your channels and members list, and to write messages to channels and direct messages.
5. Sign in with your Slack workspace and grant access

After connecting, Slack shows a green Active badge on the integrations page.

Slack is a personal integration — each team member connects their own Slack account. Messages sent by flows will appear as coming from the connected user.

Use Slack in a flow

Once connected, you can add a Slack output node to any flow.

1. Open the Flows page and create or edit a flow
2. In the node menu, open the Integrations tab and drag a Slack node onto the canvas
3. Connect the header and message inputs from other nodes in your flow
4. Click the Slack node and choose a destination — either a channel (shown with #) or a team member’s name for a direct message

Each time the flow runs, Klang posts the result to your chosen destination. If you select a channel, Klang joins it automatically on the first message.

Try the summary template

A quick way to get started is the Summary to Slack flow template. This pre-built flow takes a transcription, generates a summary, and posts it to a Slack channel or person.

1. On the Flows page, click Create flow
2. Select the Summary to Slack template
3. Choose a Slack destination and save

You can customize the template after creating it — for example, changing the summary style or adding more processing steps.

Disconnect

1. Open the Klang menu and click Integrations
2. Find Slack and click Remove
3. Confirm in the dialog

Any flow nodes that use Slack will stop working after you disconnect. Check your active flows and update them before removing the connection.
