Does SpyGlow read my Slack messages?

No. SpyGlow asks for the access it needs to list channels and post messages. You can see the full list of permissions on Slack's authorization screen before you connect.

Can I route different change types to different channels?

No. Alerts post to the one channel you pick. You can choose which change types are sent there.

Can I use a private channel?

Yes. Private channels SpyGlow has access to appear in the channel list, marked as private.

What happens to alerts if I disconnect?

Slack messages stop. Alerts keep arriving through your other channels, such as in-app and email, and everything SpyGlow found stays in your dashboard.

Does this work on the Free plan?

No, Slack is included on Pro, Growth and Teams. Free users get in-app alerts and can turn on email alerts for each competitor.

Can I have multiple Slack workspaces connected?

One workspace per SpyGlow account today.

The intelligence layer

Email tells you lands in an inbox you scan once a day. SpyGlow gives you alerts that land where your team is already deciding.

What you get

Everything packed into one workspace.

Pick the channel

Choose any public or private channel SpyGlow can see from a list.

An importance threshold for Slack

Set a threshold from 1 to 10 for Slack alone. It starts at 5, so small edits stay out of the channel.

Choose the alert types

Turn content, price, new product, structure, metadata and performance changes on or off for Slack.

Reports in Slack

Send a competitor's monitoring report to your Slack channel from the report itself.

Saved questions in Slack

Have the answer to a saved AskGlow question posted to Slack on a daily or weekly schedule.

Posts only

SpyGlow asks for the access it needs to list channels and post messages. It does not read your Slack messages.

In the details

The small things that save you time.

Choose the competitors: Turn Slack on for the competitors that matter in each competitor's alert settings, with its own importance level.
Test message: Send a test notification to check the channel before a real change arrives.
Disconnect any time: Disconnect Slack in one click. Your changes, reports and alerts stay in SpyGlow.
Change the channel later: Switch to a different channel at any time without reconnecting the workspace.
