Slack Integration

When pasting PopSQL links in Slack, we can show a beautiful preview of your query or dashboard. This also works with scheduled queries and scheduled dashboards.

Here's an example of what it looks like when you paste a dashboard link into Slack. PopSQL adds the title, author, and a preview image.

Scheduled Queries

When you schedule a query into Slack, the message will come from the PopSQL app. For individual queries you'll also get a preview of the results, plus an image of the chart if the query has a chart assocaited with it. For queries that don't have a chart, you'll see a preview of results in a markdown table, like this:

To set this up:

  1. Visit popsql.com/account.
  2. Look for the Settings link under your organization.
  3. Click Add to Slack.
