With Slack Connect, you can work alongside people from other companies in the same Slack channel. Each company can decide what permissions people from other organisations can have in channels that they're invited to.

Understanding permissions

Companies can allow people from other organisations only to post messages, or allow them to have additional permissions.

Permission only to post

People with permission only to post can send messages and do the following in a Slack Connect channel that they've been invited to:

• Use emoji and reactions
• Add files
• Use workflows
• Use their team’s slash commands and shortcuts

Permission to post, invite and more

People with permission to post, invite and more can take all the actions listed above and also do the following in a Slack Connect channel that they've been invited to:

• Add other people from their company
• Add apps and workflows
• Change the channel name, topic or description
• See an archived copy of the channel if their organisation is removed from it

Tip: For actions that you don't have permission to take, find someone from the company who invited you to the channel and ask for help.
