Slack integration

Salesforce (Slack) SalesforceHubSpot

Short answer

Slack integrations bring CRM records, alerts and approvals into Slack channels, so teams can see deal changes, service escalations and Agentforce actions where they already work. Slack is part of Salesforce and integrates with both Salesforce and HubSpot.

How the Slack integration works

Salesforce for Slack lets users view and update records, receive alerts and run approvals in Slack. HubSpot's Slack integration sends notifications and lets users create tasks and view records. Agentforce agents can also work inside Slack.
