Connect Slack to Specky
Import messages from product feedback channels.
Specky pulls from Slack on a schedule
Once connected, Specky keeps itself up to date with Slack in the background — refreshing when you open your workspace, or on demand whenever you want it now rather than later.

Before you connect it
What does Specky do with my Slack data?
It becomes part of your product graph: searchable, clustered with related feedback from your other tools, and quotable in PRDs and decisions. It is never used to train AI models, and it stays in your workspace.
Will Specky import my existing Slack history?
Yes. The first sync brings in recent history so you have something to work with straight away, and Specky keeps up with new activity after that.
What do I need to connect Slack?
Bot User OAuth Token — all of it from your own Slack account. The full walkthrough is in the setup guide.
How long does it take to set up?
A few minutes. You create a credential in Slack, paste it into Specky, and you're connected. Step-by-step instructions are in the setup guide.
Can I disconnect Slack later?
Yes, from Settings → Integrations, at any time. Disconnecting removes the connection and the data it brought in.
Do I need to be on a paid plan?
Every plan can connect integrations; the number you can run at once depends on your plan, and a few providers are limited to Scale. Settings → Usage shows where you stand.
