This guide will help you set up and manage your Slack notifications efficiently, covering everything from basic setup to customizing your preferences.

πŸ“‹ Plan availability: Slack Integration is available on all paid Archive plans, including Startup, Growth, Enterprise, and Agency. It is not available on free plans.


Connecting Archive to Slack

  1. Go to Settings and click Integrations.

  2. Click Connect to Slack.

You'll be redirected to Slack to authorize Archive to access your workspace. Select whether notifications should be delivered to a channel or via direct messages.

Once authorized, you'll be brought back to Archive where you can configure your notification preferences.


Configuring your notifications

Macro- and mega-influencers mention my brand

Set a minimum follower count to receive notifications when creators above that threshold mention your brand. Set the value to 0 to receive notifications from all creators regardless of follower count.

Verified influencers mention my brand

Toggle this on to receive notifications whenever a verified creator mentions your brand, regardless of their follower count.

New UGC appears in my saved library view

Select one or more Views to monitor. You'll receive a Slack notification whenever new content is added to a selected View. Multiple Views can be enabled at the same time.


Notifications format

Each Slack notification from Archive includes:

  • Creator's username and verification status

  • Follower count

  • Post preview

From the notification, you can:

  • Click View Public Link to open the creator's public profile

  • Click Request Usage Rights to send a usage rights request directly from Slack


Testing your notifications

Click Test to send a sample notification using a random post from your content library. This lets you confirm everything is set up correctly without waiting for new content to come in.


Refreshing your connection

Use Refresh Connection if you need to:

  • Switch to a different Slack workspace

  • Change the destination of your notifications (channel vs. direct message)

Clicking Refresh Connection takes you back to the Slack authorization screen.
To connect an additional workspace: on the Slack authorization screen, click your current workspace name and select Add another workspace from the dropdown. You'll be guided to sign in to the new workspace.
