Quire and Slack work great together.

Last updated: July 22, 2026

It is our mission to help you work smoothly via Quire and other apps you are already comfortably using. With the integration with Slack, we are one step closer.

Every app you switch to has a cost. McKinsey found that knowledge workers lose nearly 20% of the week just hunting for information across tools, which is the tax a Slack-to-Quire link is meant to cut.

For those of you who often communicate on Slack, you and your team can now receive updates about your Quire projects right inside a Slack channel, add tasks, comment on tasks and more. Chat somewhere else? Quire also connects with Microsoft Teams.

How do I integrate with Slack?

You need to link an organization to a Slack team, and a project to a Slack channel.

1. Go to Quire & Beyond

   

2. Choose Slack and click on Install

   

3. Choose the organization that you would like to integrate Slack to

   

4. Authorize Quire on your Slack account

   

5. Unlink a Slack channel on Quire Organization Settings

   

Note: A Slack channel can only be linked to one Quire project.

What can I do in a Slack channel?

When you are all set up, here are some commands to get you started in Slack:

1. Get Notified Instantly in Your Slack Channel

You can make a Slack channel follow a project or more for the team to stay on top of changes made in the projects.

Take projects Design Project (with project ID Design_Project) and Marketing Project (with project ID Marketing_Project) for example.

You can type:

/quire follow project Design_Project Marketing_Product

Note: Once you make a channel follow a project or more, everyone will get notified of all activities in the projects.

You can also make the team follow a specific task or more in a project, once you linked it to a Slack channel (see Step 4 above).

For tasks Logo Design (with task ID 123) and UI Design (with task ID 456), you just type:

/quire follow 123 456

2. Add Tasks Directly to Your Quire Project

You can add tasks to a Quire project directly from your Slack channel, and assign it to a team member, set due date, add tags, etc., at the same time.

For example, you can type:

/quire add Logo design @eric <Oct 25; Nov 21> #Design !1

to add a task called Logo design that is assigned to Eric, and has a start date of Oct 25, due date of Nov 21, tag of Design and priority Urgent.

Note: Even when a task is created by you, you need to make the channel follow the task in order to get notified in Slack.

3. Comment on Tasks While You Chat

You can add a comment to a task after a discussion or chat with your team members, right from Slack.

For example, you want to comment on the logo that Eric designed (with task ID 123).

You can type:

/quire comment 123 Looks awesome!
Let’s go with Option 2.

That is not all!

There are a lot more you can do from within a Slack channel. Check out the complete list of commands below. And if you want to automate across even more of your other apps, pair Quire with Zapier or n8n.

Quire connects to Slack so your team gets project updates right in a channel. Link an organization to a Slack team and a project to a channel, then follow it for notifications.

What can you do with the Quire Slack integration?

From Slack, use /quire commands to add tasks, assign members, set due dates and tags, comment, complete or delete tasks, and follow projects for updates.

How do you add a Quire task from Slack?

Type /quire add plus the task name in a linked channel. Add @member, a date range, a #tag, and a priority in the same command.
