To help you focus on your most important notifications, set specific people as VIPs to make their messages stand out.
Note: The VIP list feature is being rolled out gradually. We appreciate your patience as we make it available on all paid subscriptions in the coming weeks.
Manage VIPs
Add or remove VIPs
The people that you designate as VIPs will have a dedicated section at the top of your sidebar for unread messages, and unread direct messages (DMs) from your VIPs will appear at the top of the DMs tab. You can add up to 300 people, from both your organisation and external organisations, to your VIP list.
