Neo works in Slack in three ways, each through its own Slack app:
  • Neo AI Agent — Neo’s own app in your workspace. Your technicians chat with the Neo Support Agent there, and get approval cards and notifications. See Neo AI Agent in Slack.
  • Internal and end-user chat — a Chat Agent you build, in a branded Slack app per channel that Neo builds for you. An Internal channel serves your technicians in your own workspace (Slack (Internal)); an End-user channel serves your clients’ employees in theirs (Deploy your end-user Slack bot).
  • Your own notification app — an app you create yourself, set up on this page. Workflows post with the Notify Internal Team action and agents with the Send Slack Message tool.
Once the Neo AI Agent is connected, notifications go through it, and you do not need the app on this page. The steps below are for a workspace without the Neo AI Agent.

Create the Slack app

1

Open Slack API and create the app

Go to Slack API → Your Apps → Create New App → Create from scratch. Name it “Neo Agent” and select your workspace.

Add Neo to channels

1

Configure channel notifications

Use the channel ID in the Notify Internal Team action, then run a workflow that notifies that channel to confirm delivery.
Copy a channel link in Slack and use the last segment as the channel ID (for example: C1234567890).
