Slack

The RunLLM assistant can be deployed as a bot in your Slack workspace to answer questions directly in channels.

To install the RunLLM bot for Slack, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the config tab on the RunLLM dashboard and select Slack.
  2. You will be redirected to Slack and asked to install the RunLLM app in your workspace. This requires admin permissions.
  3. After installing the app, you will be redirected back to the RunLLM dashboard.
  4. Find your Workspace ID and Channel ID: open Slack in a web browser at app.slack.com and click into the target channel. The URL will be in the format https://app.slack.com/client/WORKSPACE_ID/CHANNEL_ID. The workspace ID starts with T and the channel ID starts with C.
  5. Set the Response Type: choose Respond to mentions to have the bot reply only when tagged, or Respond to all to have it reply to every message in the channel.
  6. Save the config and add the RunLLM bot to the desired channel.

To test the bot, mention it (@RunLLM) in the channel along with a question. The bot will respond in a thread. Note that answers are generated by AI and may not be fully accurate.
