# Slack Integration

## Installing Slack With Ideascale

***Path: Workspace Homepage \>\> Navigation Panel \>\> Settings \>\> Community \>\> Integrations \>\> All Apps \>\> Slack*** 

IdeaScale has an integration with the popular collaborative workspace, Slack. We think there’s a ton of golden ideas being discussed right now in your channels - now you can simply select the text of an idea Slack and add an idea to your community. Members can now submit ideas directly through their Slack workspace. Moderators can approve or deny new member and idea requests. Members can view the latest and hottest ideas and subscribe to daily idea updates. 

Slack will be automatically installed when the user set up their community via slack.
