### How to Configure and Use the Slack Integration with Sharkdom

#### Overview

The Sharkdom Slack App allows you to receive real-time partnership enquiry alerts, proposal notifications, and workflow updates directly within your Slack workspace. This helps your team stay aligned and respond faster to partnership opportunities.

### How to Connect Slack to Your Sharkdom Account

1. **Log in to Sharkdom**\
   Sign in using your Sharkdom account credentials.
2. **Navigate to "My Apps"**\
   From your Sharkdom dashboard, go to the **"My Apps"** section.
3. **Connect Slack**\
   Click the **"Connect Slack"** button.
4. **Choose Your Workspace**\
   Select the Slack workspace where you want to receive notifications.
5. **Select Your Preferred Channel**\
   After authorizing, you will be asked to select the specific channel (public or private) where Sharkdom updates will be posted.
6. **Complete Authorization**\
   Follow the Slack OAuth authorization prompts to grant the necessary permissions.

### How This Integration Works

* **Enquiry Notifications**\
  When a partner submits a proposal or enquiry through Sharkdom, an automated message will be sent to your selected Slack channel.
* **Broadcast Messages**\
  Important partnership updates, such as shared opportunities, referral program notifications, or key account overlaps, will trigger Slack messages automatically.
* **Event-Based Alerts**\
  Notifications are triggered only by specific actions, such as when a partner sends a proposal or when there is an update to a partnership opportunity

### Supported Scenarios

| ------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |

| Workflow status update                | Relevant Slack channel receives an update.               |

### Why Integrate Slack with Sharkdom?

* **Easy Setup:** Quickly integrate your existing CRM and Slack for seamless collaboration with partners.
* **Real-Time Analytics:** Access up-to-date analytics on shared opportunities and account overlaps within Slack.
* **Automated Notifications:** Set up automated Slack alerts to keep your team informed about important partnership updates.
* **Custom Reporting:** Generate detailed reports on partner performance and opportunity outcomes directly from the platform.

 Note:

This Slack app does not send messages as the user. All notifications are posted by the Sharkdom Bot (**@SharkdomApp**) to the channel selected during setup. The bot does not require manual channel membership because the `chat:write.public` scope is used for messaging.
