Use groups

Who can use this feature?

🔐 Only team owners and admins can create groups.

⭐️ Available on the paid plans.

A group is a set of team members who may need access to the same content and often need to be notified at once. For example, you can send notifications to all @Engineers and automatically add them to your Engineering workspace, without having to manually mention or add them one by one.

Groups allow you to:

  • Notify all group members at once by mentioning the group's unique name.

  • Easily add all group members to a workspace.

  • Automatically add new group members to relevant default workspaces.

Note

If you add a default workspace after creating the group, existing group members won't be automatically added to it.

Guests cannot be added to groups. They also can't see or mention groups.

  1. Open your Team settings by opening the main menu in the top left corner of the app, clicking on your team name, and then choosing Team settings.
