Ashby and Slack: questions

Does Ashby integrate with Slack?

Yes. The Ashby bot sends hiring updates by direct message or in channels as well as email, and offer approvers can approve or reject from Slack.

Does the Ashby Slack integration cost extra?

No. Ashby includes it in the subscription at no extra fee; Slack's own plan pricing still applies to your workspace.

Can Ashby create a Slack channel for each candidate's interviews?

Yes, a private channel per job consideration, opened when the first interview is booked and archived when the candidate is hired or archived. You switch it on per interview activity, not globally.

Why am I not getting Ashby notifications in Slack?

Slack notifications start switched off for each user, so add Slack under personal notification settings. If your Slack email differs from your Ashby email, enter the Slack one on the integration settings page.

Can I reply to candidates from Slack?

Yes, to text messages: click Reply on the SMS notification and the answer goes to the candidate. Replies to note notifications are saved on the candidate profile.

Can I connect Ashby to Slack with webhooks?

No. Slack webhooks do not return successful pings to Ashby; Ashby points to its alerts or to middleware such as Zapier instead.
