          Manage Requests and Tickets with the Employee Service Slack App

          Employees can report issues and track tickets within the Employee Service Slack app. Employees can easily ask for and track service requests and incidents. They can also stay up-to-date with real-time notifications every time their case changes.

          To allow the user to run the /emp-svcs-create-record command API Enabled

          Admin Setup

          Before you start, make sure you have Employee Service configured in your Salesforce org and you're using a Slack workspace.

          1. Retrieve the Slack app ID.
            1. From Setup, enter Slack apps setup in the Quick Find box, and then select Slack Apps Setup under Slack.
            2. Agree to the terms and conditions.
            3. Under Enable Slack Apps, turn on Employee Service for Slack.
            4. Go to Employee Service for Slack Permissions. Give each user the permissions they need to connect to Slack.
            5. Under Install the Slack App, click Go to Employee Service for Slack Listing.
            6. On the Employee Services for Slack page, retrieve the app ID from the page URL. The App ID is the part of the URL that appears before -employee-services-for-slack.

              For example, if your employee portal URL is: https://employeePortal/services/slack-setup?appId=XYZABCDE123, the app ID is XYZABCDE123.

          2. Set up the Employee Service for Slack app.
            1. Log in to the employee portal.
            2. Replace the <portalLink> and <appID> in this URL with your employee portal’s base URL and app ID:

              https://<portalLink>/services/slack-setup?appId=<appID>

              For example, if your employee portal URL is /employeePortal, and the appID is XYZABCDE123 the URL will be:

              https://employeePortal/services/slack-setup?appId=XYZABCDE123

            3. Open the URL in a new browser tab.
            4. From the top-right dropdown, select the correct Slack workspace and click Allow.
            5. Allow Slack to access your account. This installs the Employee Service Slack app in the Slack workspace.
            6. Share the URL you created at step 2.b, with your employees. Employees need this URL to connect to the Employee Service for Slack app.
          3. Turn on notifications:
            1. Enter flows in the Quick Find box, and then select Flows under Process Automation.
            2. Click New Flow.
            3. In the New Flow window, click Use a Template, and click Next.
            4. Select the Update Case Notification flow, and then click Create.
            5. Configure the Send Notifications for Service Management action with these values:
              Values
              Field Valid Inputs
              Channel Type SLACK
              Event Type CASE_CREATE , CASE_UPDATE , INCIDENT_CREATE , INCIDENT_UPDATE
              Recipient IDs Collection variable containing a list of IDs of users who will receive the notification
              Source Record ID ID of the record which triggers the flow
              Notification Subject Notification subject
              Notification Body Notification body
              Record URL URL of the portal
            6. Save and activate the flow.
