It is not Open Enclave, Intel SGX or other hardware enclaves, or enclave.gg. > People use Enclave in the web app at https://app.enclave.ai or the desktop app. These docs describe no public Enclave API or CLI, so don't invent endpoints, commands, or config files. > Connecting an integration needs a person to sign in and approve access in a browser. Tell the user the exact step to take instead of saying you completed it. # Slack > Ask Enclave questions by mentioning @Enclave in a Slack channel or sending it a direct message. Connect Slack so your team can ask Enclave questions without leaving Slack. Mention **@Enclave** in a channel or send it a direct message, and Enclave answers in a thread. ## Before you start * You need the **Owner** or **Admin** role in Enclave. * One Enclave organization connects to one Slack workspace. * Install Enclave into a Slack workspace, not an Enterprise Grid organization. * Connect from Enclave in your browser. The desktop app can't complete Slack's sign-in. > [!WARNING] > > If your workspace requires app approval, Slack sends a request to your workspace admins instead of installing Enclave. Ask a Slack admin to approve Enclave, or to connect it for you. ## Connect Slack **1. Open integrations** Open **Settings → Integrations** in [app.enclave.ai](https://app.enclave.ai). Click **Connect** next to **Slack**. **2. Add Enclave to Slack** Click **Add to Slack**. Slack asks you to approve Enclave for your workspace. Click **Allow**. Back in Enclave, your workspace appears under **Workspace**. **3. Invite @Enclave to a channel** In Slack, open a channel and invite the app, for example with `/invite @Enclave`. Enclave only sees threads in channels it's part of. ## Who can ask Enclave matches each Slack user to an Enclave member by their confirmed Slack email. Someone who isn't a member gets a private **Request access** button that notifies your admins. Slack Connect guests and members of other workspaces can't ask. ## Using Enclave in Slack * **In a channel:** mention **@Enclave** with your question. Enclave answers in a thread. In an existing thread, it also reads up to 15 earlier messages for context. * **In a thread:** once Enclave has joined, every reply is a question. You don't need to mention it again. Start a message with `(aside)` to keep it from Enclave. * **In a direct message:** use the Enclave app's **Messages** tab. Only you can read the conversation. Anyone in your organization can join a thread. Enclave answers each person with their own permissions. Each answer ends with an **Open this chat in Enclave** link. When Enclave wants to save a memory, it asks in the thread with **Approve** and **Reject** buttons. ## Slack threads in Enclave Each Slack thread is a [Research session](https://docs.enclave.ai/research/managing-sessions.md#sessions-from-slack). Messages you write in Enclave post to the thread under your name. ## Privacy * Everyone in a thread can read the whole session. * Replies are visible to everyone in the channel, including guests. Ask sensitive questions in a private channel or a DM. * Enclave doesn't post in channels shared with another organization. * Findings and workflow runs never post to Slack. ## Manage the connection Open **Settings → Integrations → Slack**. * **Reconnect** appears when the workspace shows **Reconnect to grant new permissions**. A newer Enclave feature needs a permission your install doesn't have. Click it to approve the new permissions. * **Remove** removes Enclave from the Slack workspace. Existing sessions stay in Enclave. If Slack doesn't confirm the uninstall, remove the Enclave app in Slack yourself. ## Troubleshooting > [accordion] Enclave doesn't respond at all > > Check that @Enclave is in the channel and that the workspace still appears in **Settings → Integrations → Slack**. In a reply, Enclave only answers in threads it has already joined. Mention it to bring it into a new thread. > [accordion] "Enclave finds your account by your confirmed Slack email, and yours is not available." > > Your Slack profile has no email, or Slack hasn't confirmed it. Confirm your email in Slack, then try again. > [accordion] "Enclave can't respond to your message because your Slack email isn't associated with a member of this Enclave organization." > > Your Slack email doesn't match an Enclave account in this organization. Click **Request access**, or ask an admin to invite your Slack email. If you already have an Enclave account under a different email, Enclave can't match it yet. > [accordion] "Your Enclave role cannot use chat." > > Your role doesn't include access to Research. Ask an admin to change your role. See [Roles and permissions](https://docs.enclave.ai/admin/roles.md). > [accordion] "This Slack channel is shared with another organization, so Enclave doesn't post in it." > > The channel is a Slack Connect channel. Ask in a channel that's internal to your workspace. > [accordion] "Stopped before finishing." or "Something went wrong while working on this." > > The answer stopped early or failed. Click **Open this chat in Enclave** to see what happened, then send another message in the thread to try again. > [accordion] "Open Enclave in your browser to connect Slack." > > You're using the desktop app. Open [app.enclave.ai](https://app.enclave.ai) in a browser to connect or reconnect Slack.
