Slack Integration
Get real-time video engagement notifications in your Slack workspace. Know instantly when someone views your video, clicks a CTA, or when a campaign launches.
Prerequisites
- A Slack workspace where you can install apps.
- A Zidi account on the Pro plan.
Connecting Slack
- Open the Integrations page from the left sidebar in your Zidi dashboard.
- Click Slack.
- Click Connect Slack.
- Select the Slack workspace and authorize the Zidi app.
- You'll be redirected back to Zidi with a success message.
Configuring Notifications
After connecting, you can choose which Slack channel receives notifications and toggle them on or off:
- Enable the notifications toggle on the Slack integration page.
- Select a channel from the dropdown. Public channels are joined automatically; for private channels, type
/invite @Zidiin the channel first. - Click Save Channel Settings.
Notification Types
| Event | What You See in Slack |
|---|---|
| Video Viewed | Viewer email, video title, and watch percentage. |
| CTA Clicked | Instant notification when a viewer clicks your call-to-action button. |
| Campaign Launched | Team notification when a personalized video campaign is launched. |
| Engagement Milestones | Alert when a viewer hits 50%, 80%, or 100% watch — signals high intent. |
Channel Selection Tips
- Use an existing channel (e.g.,
#sales-alerts). - Create a dedicated channel (e.g.,
#zidi-notifications). - Change the channel at any time from the Slack integration page.
Disconnecting
Open Integrations from the left sidebar, click Slack, and click Disconnect Slack. Notifications will stop immediately.
Troubleshooting
- Not receiving notifications? — Check that the Zidi app hasn't been removed from your Slack workspace and that notifications are enabled on the integration page.
- Wrong channel? — Update the channel from the Slack integration page and save.
- Private channel not listed? — Type
/invite @Zidiin the private channel first, then reload the channel list. - Too many notifications? — Consider using a dedicated channel with muted notifications.
