Upload and share files

Upload and share a file from your computer or a file management tool to jumpstart collaboration or gather feedback on your work in progress.

 

How to upload and share a file in the Slack desktop app

1. Drag and drop a file into Slack or click the 📎 paper clip icon next to the message input.
2. Choose a file from your computer.
3. Write a message describing the file and click upload.

 

Share all types of files

You can also use your existing file management tools like Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, and OneDrive in much the same ways as well. Share files into channels, have discussions in threads and ask for approvals with emoji reactions.
