Integrations

Connecting Slack

March 13, 2026 2 min read

Lattica + Slack is the most-used integration we ship. Set up takes about thirty seconds and gives you task creation, status updates, and threaded discussion from inside your channels.

Install the app

From Settings → Integrations → Slack, click Install. Slack walks you through workspace authorization. Lattica requests these scopes:

  • channels:read and groups:read — to list channels you can post in
  • chat:write — to post task notifications and unfurls
  • commands — for the /lattica slash command
  • links:read and links:write — to unfurl Lattica URLs into rich previews

Lattica does not request DM read access or message history — we only see what you explicitly send to the bot.

The slash command

Type /lattica anywhere in Slack to open a task creator. Required: title. Optional: project, assignee, due date, priority. Hit return; the new task is posted back to the channel as a card with a deep link.

Quick variants:

  • /lattica search login bug — search Lattica from Slack
  • /lattica today — your tasks due today, posted to the channel as a private message
  • /lattica subscribe #project-name — pipe project updates to the current channel

Channel subscriptions

Subscribe a channel to a project to get notifications when tasks change status, get reassigned, or hit milestones. Granularity is per-channel and per-event-type — most teams subscribe their team channel to status changes only, and a separate #deploys channel to milestone completions.

Threaded discussion

Reply to a task notification in Slack and the reply syncs back to the task as a comment. Subsequent comments on either side stay synced for the lifetime of the thread.

Disconnecting

To remove the integration, go to Settings → Integrations → Slack → Disconnect. Lattica revokes its tokens and stops posting; existing notifications stay in Slack as historical messages.
