Sync a Slack channel with a hub

There are two ways to connect Slack: a one-time import of past history, and a live channel sync that keeps running. This guide covers the second one.

How it differs from importing

• Import: upload a Slack export ZIP to move past conversations across once. Anything written in Slack afterwards does not follow.
• Live sync: link one Slack channel to one hub. From then on, messages posted in Slack arrive in the hub as marks.

Use live sync while part of your team is still on Slack. Whether someone writes in Slack or in Markhub, the conversation ends up in one place.

Connect a channel

1. Click + next to CONNECTED in the sidebar and choose Slack.
2. Approve access to your Slack workspace.
3. Pair the Slack channel you want to sync with the Markhub hub that should receive it.
4. Save. The channel → hub mapping now appears under CONNECTED.

What it looks like once connected

Synced conversations sit in the hub alongside every other mark. There is no separate inbox to check: it reads as if it had always been one place.

What you can do with a synced mark

• Reply and react exactly as you would on a mark written in Markhub.
• Convert it into a to-do or a note.
• Summaries, search and Flow all apply the same way.

If you also want the history that already happened in Slack, run the Slack import before turning live sync on.
