The Slack connector lets Ask Reevo, the AI sales assistant inside the Reevo app, work with your Slack workspace during conversations. Ask it to find the last thread where a customer came up, pull what the team said in a channel, draft or send a message on your behalf, or summarize a discussion into a canvas, and it uses your own Slack account to do it.
Looking for Ask Reevo inside Slack? That’s the Ask Reevo Slack Integration, where you @mention @Reevo in your Slack workspace. This page covers the opposite direction: connecting your Slack account so Ask Reevo, inside the Reevo app, can search, read, and post to Slack for you.
How it works:
  • The connection is personal, and Ask Reevo acts as you. It authenticates with your own Slack account (no bot is added to your workspace), sees only the channels and messages you can see, and anything it posts appears under your name.
  • Reading and searching run automatically. Anything that posts or changes content in Slack (sending, scheduling, or drafting messages, adding reactions, creating channels, or editing canvases) shows an approval card in the chat, and Ask Reevo proceeds only after you approve.
  • An organization admin enables the connector once for the whole organization; each person then connects their own Slack account.
Availability. MCP connectors are rolling out gradually to help us maintain the best possible experience for you. If you don’t see MCP connectors under Settings, your organization may not have access yet; contact your Reevo representative or email support@reevo.ai.

​
Connect Slack to Ask Reevo

​
Enable the connector (admins)

An organization admin must enable the connector before anyone can connect:
  1. In Reevo, open the Organization tab of Settings → Ask Reevo → MCP connectors.
  2. Turn on the toggle on the Slack card.

​
Connect your Slack account

  1. Open the User tab of Settings → Ask Reevo → MCP connectors.
  2. Click Connect on the Slack card. Your browser is redirected to Slack.
  3. Sign in to Slack, pick the workspace you want to connect, and review the permissions listed on Slack’s authorization screen.
  4. Click Allow. You return to Reevo, and the Slack card shows a Connected badge.

​
Use the Slack connector

Once connected, just mention Slack (or the conversations that live there) in any Ask Reevo conversation. Examples of what you can ask:
  • “Find the last time Acme Corp came up in Slack and summarize the thread.”
  • “Pull the last 50 messages from #support and tell me what customers are complaining about.”
  • “DM Jane a summary of today’s discovery call.”
  • “Schedule a message in #revenue for Monday 9am reminding the team about the Q3 forecast review.”
  • “Draft a message to #deals announcing the Globex renewal. Don’t send it, just save the draft.”
  • “Create a Slack canvas summarizing the Q3 close and post the link in #leadership.”

What Ask Reevo can do in Slack

​
Reads (run automatically)

  • Search: find messages, files, channels, and people across the conversations your account can access, including private channels you belong to and your direct messages.
  • Read conversations: pull channel history, a specific thread, or your direct message history.
  • Look up people: find teammates by name, role, or email, read profile details such as title, status, and timezone, and see who belongs to a channel or group conversation.
  • Read files and canvases: open shared files and read canvas content.
  • Reactions and emoji: see who reacted to a message and search your workspace’s custom emojis.

​
Actions (need your approval)

  • Send messages: post to a channel or send a direct message, appearing as you.
  • Schedule and draft: schedule a message for later (from 2 minutes up to 120 days ahead) or save a draft to your Drafts without sending.
  • React: add an emoji reaction to a message.
  • Create conversations: create a channel, or open a direct or group message.
  • Canvases: create a canvas or edit an existing one.
Canvas availability. Creating canvases requires a paid Slack plan; Slack does not offer canvas creation on free workspaces.

​
Permissions and data access

Slack access is granted through OAuth with your own Slack user account. Slack’s authorization screen lists every permission before you approve, and no API keys are created or pasted. Because the connector uses your user token rather than a bot, it is not a workspace admin tool: it cannot manage workspace settings, change anyone’s permissions, or see channels you are not a member of. The requested permissions, grouped by what they allow:

​
Technology and AI disclosure

Ask Reevo uses generative AI to interpret your requests, search and read the Slack content you have access to, and generate responses and drafts. Ask Reevo can generate inaccurate or incomplete responses. As with any generative AI product, verify important information before you act on it or post it. What the technology does:
  • Interprets your natural-language requests inside the Reevo app.
  • Retrieves the Slack messages, files, and profiles needed to answer, using your own Slack access.
  • Suggests messages and actions, which you approve before anything is posted to Slack.

​
Disconnect and reconnect

To disconnect, open Settings → Ask Reevo → MCP connectors, find the Slack card, open the three-dot menu next to the Connected badge, and select Disconnect. When you disconnect, Reevo revokes its access token with Slack and removes the connection’s stored sign-in tokens. You can also remove Reevo from your Slack workspace’s authorized apps in Slack. Ask Reevo can no longer reach your Slack account until you reconnect. If a connection stops working (for example, the authorization expired or was revoked in Slack), Ask Reevo shows a reconnect card in the chat, and the Slack card on the MCP connectors page shows Reconnect instead of Connect. Click Reconnect and complete the Slack sign-in to restore the connection; your admin does not need to re-enable anything.

​
Data and privacy

​
What the connector accesses

  • Slack messages, threads, files, canvases, and profile details that your own Slack account can access, fetched when needed to answer a request you make.
  • Nothing is accessed on a schedule or in the background; Slack data is retrieved during your conversations with Ask Reevo.

​
How the data is handled

  • Reevo stores the connection’s sign-in tokens so you don’t have to re-authorize on every request. Your Slack workspace is not synced or copied into Reevo in bulk.
  • Slack content that appears in a conversation becomes part of that chat, like any other chat content.
  • You can disconnect the connector at any time from the MCP connectors page.
The Reevo Privacy Policy and Terms of Service govern how Reevo collects, uses, and retains data, including data accessed through connectors, and how to access or delete your data.

Troubleshooting and FAQs

MCP connectors are rolling out gradually and may not be enabled for your organization yet. Contact your Reevo representative or email support@reevo.ai.
An organization admin needs to enable the Slack connector from the Organization tab first. Ask your Reevo admin to turn it on.
The Ask Reevo Slack Integration installs the @Reevo bot in your Slack workspace so you can talk to Ask Reevo from Slack. The Slack connector works in the other direction: it connects your Slack account so Ask Reevo, inside the Reevo app, can search, read, and post to Slack as you. You can use both at the same time.
No. Every action that posts or changes content in Slack (sending, scheduling, or drafting a message, reacting, creating a channel, or editing a canvas) shows an approval card in the chat first, and Ask Reevo proceeds only after you approve.
Only yours. The connector uses your own Slack account, so it can search and read private channels you are a member of and your own direct messages, and nothing else. It cannot see anyone else’s private conversations.
The connector authenticates as you rather than installing a bot, so everything it posts appears under your own Slack identity. That’s also why you approve each message before it is sent.
Your Slack authorization expired or was revoked. Click Reconnect on the card in the chat (or on the MCP connectors page) and complete the Slack sign-in again.
Open Settings → Ask Reevo → MCP connectors, find the Slack card, open the three-dot menu next to the Connected badge, and select Disconnect. You can reconnect anytime.
