Set up the Wistia and Slack integration
There are a few initial steps required to start receiving Wistia notifications via Slack:
Add the Wistia app to your Slack Workspace
Connect your Wistia user to your Slack user
Opt-in to receive notifications
We'll cover each step in detail below.
Add the Wistia app to your Slack Workspace
First, Wistia’s app needs to be added to a Slack workspace. To get started, head to the Integrations page in Wistia, then click the "Slack" integration. From there, click “Set up Slack.”
Note
Some workspaces require approval from a Slack admin.
You'll be asked to log in (if you're not logged in already) and select a workspace.
If a Slack workspace admin needs to approve an app, the Slack screen will guide you through the request process. Once approved, or if approval is not needed for your workspace, continue from “Set up Slack integration” through Slack’s connection flow.
Once the connection process is complete, all Wistia users on the account will have the ability to connect at a user level.
Connect your Wistia user to your Slack user
Once connected at the account level, you can connect your Wistia user profile to your Slack user profile to receive personalized notifications and take user-specific actions.
In your Slack workspace, navigate to "Tools," then click "Apps." Search and select the Wistia app to connect.
Opt-in to receive notifications
Once you’ve fully connected the Slack integration, you can opt in to receive notifications from Wistia in Slack.
Navigate to your Settings page in Wistia, then click "Notifications." From here, toggle on any notifications you’d like to receive in Slack under the "Slack" column and save your changes.
Disconnect the integration
To disconnect the Slack integration, navigate to the Integrations page in Settings, then click "Slack." From there, click "Disconnect user profile" to only disconnect your user profile from the Slack integration. To disconnect the Slack integration for all users on the Wistia account, click "Disconnect Slack."
Note
Only Account Owners and Managers can disconnect the integration account-wide.
