Integrate Granola with Slack

Setting up integration with Slack will allow you to share your notes directly to a Slack channel without leaving Granola. When you share a note to Slack, Granola posts a link to the note along with a short summary snippet. This integration supports sharing to channels only.
  1. Find Slack in integrations settings
You can find our Integrations in your Settings, via your avatar in the bottom left. Here you’ll see Slack as an integration: image.png

Posting to private Slack channels

To post to private channels in Granola, you’ll need to do the following things:
  • Make sure you’re logged into Granola with the same email address as your Slack account
  • Make sure you have access to the private channel
  • Add the Granola app to the private channel
When you’ve checked all of that:
  1. Go to the channel in Slack and type ’/’ in the new message box
  2. Click ‘Add apps to this channel’
  3. Head back to Granola, and search for your new channel in the ‘post to Slack’ dialog

Can I automate pushing my notes to Slack?

You can set up a rule for any notes added to a folder to be automatically posted to a Slack channel of your choice. folders-auto-slack.png You can set up this rule by clicking on the 3 dots next to a folder name in the sidebar, then ‘Integrations’.

Troubleshooting

The Slack integration requires a Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 account. It’s not available for personal Gmail or Outlook.com accounts. Your email address must be the same in your Granola and Slack accounts. If you’ve recently changed your email address on Slack, you might need to disconnect and re-connect the Granola integration to pick up your new email address. You can do this in Granola > Settings > Slack. Lastly, in Settings > Preferences > Data & sharing, your default link sharing setting needs to be set to something other than ‘Private’ for the Slack button to appear in your notes. If you update this setting, it will only apply to future notes. Please note, you can only click on the ‘Send to Slack’ button after you’ve enhanced your notes. The link preview (unfurl) that Slack displays when you share a note depends on the note’s sharing visibility setting:
  • Anyone with the link — Slack can fetch the note’s content and display a rich preview that includes the meeting title, attendees, date, and a summary snippet.
  • Company only — Slack cannot authenticate as a member of your company, so it cannot fetch the note’s content. The link preview will show a generic card without meeting details.
For any other problems, reach out to our support team on hey@granola.so - screenshots are always helpful! Choose a channel, and any new notes that you add to the folder will be posted to Slack. If you can’t see any channels to select, make sure you’ve set up the integration beforehand. Disclaimer: Granola works hard to deliver accurate summaries and notes, but as with any AI-powered tool, it may occasionally mishear names or details, or generate incomplete summaries. We recommend giving your notes a quick review to make sure everything looks right before you share with your team.
