# Slack

> Sync project channels and threads from your Slack workspace

Slack brings your project channels into Brink — messages and thread replies, with authors resolved, and RFI/submittal mentions cross-linked to Procore.

**Who can connect:** organization owners and admins. Connecting installs the Brink app into your Slack workspace.

## Connect Slack

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Integrations">
    On the **Integrations** page, click the **Slack** card, then **Connect Slack**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install to your workspace">
    You'll be redirected to Slack to approve the installation. Brink requests channel history and member-name access for public channels.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Bind channels">
    On the **Projects** page, bind each project's Slack channel(s). The picker lists **public, non-archived channels** only.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Only **public channels** can be bound. Private channels and direct messages are not available to Brink — if a channel is missing from the picker, check whether it's private or archived.
</Warning>

## What gets synced

* Channel messages and thread replies, with author names resolved
* Late replies to recent threads are picked up by re-checking the 25 most recent threads on each sync
* RFI and submittal numbers in messages are cross-linked to Procore records

<Note>
  Slack rate-limits history access heavily, so the first backfill of a large channel can take a while. Recent messages appear first; history fills in over subsequent syncs.
</Note>

## Notes

* Slack tokens don't expire, so this connection rarely needs reconnecting.
* Disconnecting revokes the Brink app's token with Slack.
