# Slack

> Mention @Jobr for an instant reply, or assign a channel so new messages become drafts.

## Two ways to use Slack

  <Card title="Mention @Jobr" icon="at">
    Anyone in a channel can @-mention Jobr for an instant threaded reply. Great for internal Q\&A off the company brain.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Assigned channel" icon="hashtag">
    Assign a channel to an employee. New top-level messages become drafts, reviewed via your chosen approval mode.

## Connect Slack

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the connectors page">
    Go to `/app/connectors` and choose Slack.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install the Jobr app">
    Sign in with Slack and authorize the workspace.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick channels">
    On each employee, choose the channels it should watch and the approval mode per channel.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Approval modes on Slack

* **Approve-first.** Every reply waits in the [approvals queue](/app/approvals).
* **Auto.** Replies send directly, with the safety valve and any instruction-based escalations still active.

Gmail draft mode does not apply on Slack.

## Good practices

<Tip>
  Start new channels in approve-first. Watch a few days of drafts, then move trusted channels to auto.
