PRO Tip:
The Count.It Slack app is not a replacement for the Count.It mobile app -- they're best used together. Your challengers will still connect fitness trackers via the Count.It mobile app, and there are some features that only exist in the mobile app; but, for companies running Slack, the Count.It Slack app is a no brainer for boosting engagement!
Add Count.It to Your Slack
It takes just a minute to add the Count.It Slack app to your Slack workspace. A few quick tips:
You must be an admin of your Count.It group. If you haven't created your Count.It group, start here!
Also, be sure you have the necessary permissions to add apps to your Slack workspace.
Part 1: Add to Slack
Sign In to the Count.It app on your mobile phone, or sign in to Count.It on the web.
Tap on the Settings ⚙️ icon at the top of your Group Home screen
Tap on the Integrations button.
Tap the "Add to Slack" button
Follow the prompts to connect your Count.It account to Slack, and grant the requested permissions.
Important: If you are signed in to more than one Slack workspace, be sure you are granting permissions for the correct one! (You will see a dropdown select option at the top of the permissions screen to choose your workspace.)
Part 2: Connecting Your Account
Once connected, the Count.It Slack app will appear in your workspace navigation on the left, under the "Apps" section.
Tap on the Count.It, and you will land on the app's "Home" screen.
Tap on the Get Started button to connect your Slack account to your Count.It account. You will grant permissions again.
Part 3: Launching the Slack App
Once the Count.It Slack app is installed, and you are connected, you will be able to configure and launch it from your the app's Slack home screen.
There are several available settings.
Set your challenge #channel. The app will deliver news to one Slack #channel. Typically, this channel is dedicated to the challenge, though it may also be the hub for additional wellness initiatives.
Send the Count.It app launch message. When you're ready to alert users to the Count.It Slack app, and invite them to the challenge, tap the "Launch" button to deliver invite message to your designated #channel.
That's it, you're done!
