# Slack

> Connect Metaview to Slack to receive updates and interact with supported workflows.

Connect Metaview to Slack to receive notifications and continue supported workflows without needing to keep Metaview open.

<Note>
  **Currently, our Slack integration only supports Sourcing workflows.** Other Metaview workflows and notifications, including Notes notifications, are not yet available through this integration. To automatically post completed meeting summaries to Slack, you can use [Slack via Zapier](/integrations/zapier-integrations/slack). We may expand the native Slack integration to support additional workflows in the future.
</Note>

## Connect Slack

Any active workspace member can connect Slack:

1. Open `Settings` in Metaview.
2. Select `Integrations`.
3. Find Slack and click `Connect`.
4. Follow the prompts to authorize the Metaview Slack app.

Once connected, Slack notifications for [Sourcing](/recruiting-platform/ai-sourcing) are enabled automatically. You can manage your personal notification preferences in Metaview.

## Use Slack with Sourcing

You can use Slack to:

* Start a sourcing search
* Receive updates when the sourcing agent needs input
* Continue a sourcing conversation from its Slack thread
* Receive a notification when results are ready
* Open the full search and Candidate Pack in Metaview

For instructions and best practices, see the [Sourcing Guide](/guides/tutorials/sourcing-guide).

## Manage notifications

Notifications for Sourcing are enabled by default once Slack is connected. To change your preferences:

1. Open your personal settings in Metaview.
2. Go to notification settings.
3. Enable or disable Slack notifications.

## Native Slack integration vs Slack via Zapier

Metaview offers two ways to work with Slack:

* **Native Slack integration:** Use Slack as a conversational interface for Sourcing and receive sourcing-related notifications.
* **Slack via Zapier:** Automatically post completed meeting summaries and selected Metaview fields to a Slack channel.

These can be used independently or together.
