![]() ![]() ![]() This could be the name of your department, a nickname you go by, or even a conversation topic that you want to keep up on. ![]() If you have notifications for “Direct messages and highlight words”, you can enter words here that trigger a notification. The “Highlight Words” is a very useful option. Using Slack in a browser means you will have the option to enable or disable desktop notifications, but there won’t be any options for bouncing Dock icons or flashing windows. At that point, it’s up to you how often you want to be notified and you can of course, turn them off completely. Instead, you may be prompted to allow desktop notifications. ![]() If you’re using Slack in a web browser, you won’t see notification options such as these. Since Windows doesn’t have a Dock, you can configure Slack to flash a Window when a notification is received. This is how notifications act on the Windows client. In the following screenshot, we see the OS X version, which has options for how notifications appear in the Dock. Additionally, you can configure how notifications behave below this as well. If you don’t want the content of a message shown in a notification, then you will need to turn that feature off. Slack also comes with 11 alert sounds that you can choose from, or you can go with none, as well as mute everything including system alerts and direct messages. You may only want notifications for direct messages or when someone mentions your name or another “highlight word” (which we’ll discuss in a moment). If your “office” is really busy and chatty, then probably don’t want to be notified by all activity. You can even mute notifications for that channel altogether.Ĭlick “Your Notification Preferences” to set up when notifications are triggered. Click on “Settings for #” to set notification preferences for the channel you’re in. ![]()
