Manage Slack Connect discoverability for your organisation

Slack Connect allows people across organisations to search for each other by email address and connect in Slack. Owners and admins can manage Slack Connect discoverability for their organisation.

Note: If Slack Connect discoverability is enabled for your organisation, no personal or workspace information will be shared with external people. Members can also set their own discoverability preference.
