With Smartsheet for Slack, your teams keep the context and agility of Slack while gaining the flexibility to collaborate and execute on work in Smartsheet. Notifications and automated requests that are actionable directly from Slack provide teams with new ways to quickly move work forward. Once you set up your notification rules, the Slack channel or individuals who have installed the Smartsheet app in Slack will automatically receive updates - saving you from sending them manually.
