# Can I share courses through Slack?

Yes. Connect your Coassemble workspace to Slack and push courses or collections straight to a channel or a direct message. Learners open them with a secure one-time link, with no separate login, and you're notified when someone starts or finishes a course.

Sharing through Slack delivers training where your team already works. Instead of sending people to a separate platform, you post a course or collection into a channel or a DM and they start it right there. It's useful for rolling out a new process, sharing product knowledge, or onboarding new hires.

## Before you start

You'll need permission to connect apps and integrations in both Coassemble and your Slack workspace.

## How do I connect Slack to my Coassemble workspace?

Before you can share to Slack, connect your Slack workspace to your Coassemble workspace.

### Step 1: Open Settings

In Coassemble, select **Settings** from the left-hand menu.

### Step 2: Open Connections and choose Slack

* Click **Connections** in the Workspace menu (in some accounts this appears under **Integrations**).
* Select **Slack**, then click **Connect**. You'll be taken to Slack to sign in to your workspace.
* Follow the prompts to sign in. Slack may give you an authentication code to set up the connection.

### Step 3: Allow Coassemble to access your Slack workspace

Select **Allow**. Your Coassemble workspace is now connected to your Slack workspace.

### Step 4: Decide who can use the connection

* If you have multiple creators in your workspace, decide whether the Slack connection is available to just you or to all creators.
* You can disable or remove the connection at any time under **Settings > Connections**.

## How do I share a course or collection to Slack?

You can share both courses and collections. Post a course into a channel or send it to someone by direct message, and share entire collections the same way.

### Step 1: Select Share

* From a course, click **Share** (inside the course, or under the course card on the dashboard).
* From a collection, click **Share** (inside the collection, or via the three-dot menu on the Collections page).

### Step 2: Choose Slack and select recipients

Depending on your workspace setup, you'll either:

* Choose **Slack** as the sharing method, then select a **channel** or **direct message** recipient, or
* Use the **Invite people** field to @mention Slack members or #channels.

You'll see a dropdown of matching users or channels. Select where you'd like to share.

### Step 3: Add an optional message and send

Write an optional message to go with your course or collection, then click **Send invitation**.

## What do learners see?

* Learners get a Slack message with an **Access course** button (or course link).
* Selecting it generates a secure access link and opens the course in their browser.
* If a link expires, they can regenerate a new one instantly.
* Completed courses are marked in their Slack experience (such as a To-Do list, where available), which they can revisit anytime.

## What notifications does Slack send?

You and your learners can stay on top of progress with real-time updates:

* **Course started:** see when training begins.
* **Course completed:** track completions as they happen.
* **View insights:** jump to Coassemble to see analytics.

## Troubleshooting

* **Can't connect Slack:** confirm you can authorise apps in your Slack workspace, and that you're a Workspace owner (or have the right access) in Coassemble.
* **Slack option not available:** check that Slack is connected under **Settings > Connections**. Slack channel sharing depends on your plan, so see [coassemble.com/pricing](https://coassemble.com/pricing) for what's included.
* **Link doesn't work:** make sure the learner has access to the course and is signed in, if your access settings require it.

## How do I find the Coassemble app in Slack?

In Slack, look under **Apps** in the left-hand sidebar and select **Coassemble** to see all notifications and updates.
