Getting started with Slackalendar

Your first few steps

1. 01Create an account or open your existing team invitation and sign in using the invited email and the account's original sign-in method.
2. 02For a new web-only company, open the organization selector above the sidebar navigation, choose Create organization, enter its name, and confirm. For an existing company, accept its team invitation instead of creating a duplicate company.
3. 03Select the correct organization in the sidebar before opening Teams → New Team. Company membership and team membership are separate requirements.
4. 04Invite teammates by email, or add an available existing account from the team page.
5. 05Create a task with a priority, status, and due date; assign an owner from the task's edit controls.
6. 06For a Slack-first setup, open /slack/onboarding, complete Slack authorization and the explicit company-owner confirmation, then link your personal Slack identity and join the relevant team.

Find your way around

• Dashboard gives you a starting point for recent and upcoming work.
• My Tasks focuses on tasks assigned to you; Teams brings together team work and team settings.
• Calendar shows work by due date. Company holds company administration; Billing is permission-restricted. Notifications collects alerts, and Settings holds security, appearance and notification preferences.
• Use the view switcher to change task lists between List, Kanban, Board, Calendar, Table, and Timeline.

Work in Slack or the web app

Slackalendar tasks are shared between the web app and supported Slack task actions. Changes made through Slackalendar in Slack update the same task records, and open web pages refresh affected team data automatically. If the live connection drops, the app checks for updates while the page is visible. This covers Slackalendar task actions—not every message in a channel—so create a task or use a supported command/action to track a conversation follow-up. Slack is optional for web task management.

Try a small web-only project

1. 01Fictional example: Morgan creates Cedar Studio using Create organization, selects it, then creates the Website Launch team.
2. 02Morgan invites Alex by email. Alex accepts using the invited account and checks Cedar Studio in the sidebar selector.
3. 03Morgan creates Draft launch checklist with a due date, opens it and assigns Alex. Alex adds a comment and moves it to In Progress.
4. 04Both open Calendar and check that the task appears on its due date. A task without a due date will not appear there.
