# Slack Integration

> Connect Magnet to Slack to create issues with @mentions, get link previews, and stay in the loop without leaving your team chat.

## Overview

Magnet's Slack integration brings your workspace into your team's communication flow. Share Magnet links and get rich previews, or `@mention` the Magnet bot to create issues directly from Slack.

## Setting up Slack

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to Integrations">
    Open **Settings** > **Integrations** in the Magnet dashboard.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect Slack">
    Click **Connect Slack** and authorize Magnet for your Slack workspace.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Creating issues with @mentions

Once connected, you can `@mention` the Magnet bot in any channel or thread to create an issue:

```
@Magnet Add dark mode support to the settings page
```

Magnet will:

1. Create a new issue with an auto-generated title
2. Reply in the thread with a link to the issue

This is a fast way to capture bugs, feature requests, or tasks without leaving Slack.

## Link previews

When someone shares a Magnet link in Slack — to an issue, session, or page — Magnet automatically unfurls it with a rich preview showing the title, status, and key details.

## Coming soon

<Info>
  **@mention to start sessions** — `@Magnet` with a prompt and a repo to kick off a coding session directly from Slack, without opening the dashboard.
