Set up Slack notifications and connected accounts
Get budget alerts, approvals, and payment events as Slack DMs, and link personal accounts such as Fireflies under Connections.
Notifications reach you in-app, by email, and on Slack, per event type, inside your working hours. Connections link your own accounts on other services. This article configures both.
Slack notifications
- Ask an admin to confirm Slack is configured under Settings, then Platform health.
- Go to Team, open your profile, and enter your Slack member id.
- Go to Settings, then Notifications. Each event type has three toggles: in-app, email, and Slack. Switch on Slack for the events you want.
- Set your working hours, working days, and timezone. Outside that window, email and Slack are suppressed; in-app is never suppressed.
- Under Allocation alert thresholds, add the percentages you personally want to hear about. Directors default to 80% and 100%.
Slack messages arrive as a DM with a View in Verbial button.
Per-brand email overrides
If you work across brands, route brand-scoped mail to different inboxes on the same page. A proposal comment for one brand goes to that brand's inbox. A brand-aligned address is also required to have replies to proposals you send routed correctly.
Connections
- Go to Help & records, then Connections (Settings, then Connections).
- Click Connect next to a provider and approve the prompt. Fireflies is available today: it lets prospect intel on a proposal show the calls you have already had with a company, searched as you.
- Disconnect from the same page at any time. Revoke on the provider's side too if you want a clean break.
Gmail and Google Calendar connections live in the CRM. See Connect Gmail, Calendar, and booking links.
What to check
- Meeting transcripts from Fireflies, tl;dv, Granola, and Gemini can reach the CRM through webhooks configured by an admin under CRM settings.
- Settings, then Platform health, shows whether each integration is configured and when it last did anything, without calling any third party.
Questions
Does Verbial post to Slack channels?
Notifications are sent as direct messages from the workspace bot to each person, according to their own preferences. The bot also handles a few workspace commands and daily culture posts where the operator has enabled them.
Can I pause notifications?
Yes. Pause notifications for 1 hour, 4 hours, until tomorrow, or 1 week under Settings, then Notifications. In-app rows still accumulate.
Who can see my connected accounts?
Nobody. A connection is yours alone, grants Verbial nothing you cannot already see at the provider, and only you can disconnect it.
