Reclaim's integration for Slack empowers you to keep your calendar in sync with your Slack status automatically using Slack Status Sync, share your availability with colleagues in Slack automatically via Scheduling Links, as well as manage your agenda and take action on calendar events.

This document will provide an overview of how to install Reclaim's integration for Slack, as well as what kinds of things you can do with it.

To install Reclaim's integration for Slack in your workspace, you'll need to first add it as a Slack app. You can do this:

Regardless of which installation route you choose, you'll be prompted to add the Slack integration and provide permissions on your workspace, and then once the app in Slack is installed you'll be prompted to connect your Reclaim account within Slack.

Once you complete these steps, the integration will be linked with your Reclaim account and you can start using it.

If you would like to install our integration to multiple Slack workspaces, just search in the Slack Marketplace for the Reclaim app and add it directly from there. Once added, navigate to @Reclaim in the Slack workspace and you'll be prompted to connect it to your authenticated Reclaim account.

Reclaim’s integration for Slack makes it easy to manage your schedule, tasks, and availability right inside Slack. You can review your agenda, get intelligent notifications and digests, and keep your status automatically in sync with your calendar — all without switching apps.

When you open Reclaim under the Apps section of your Slack workspace, you’ll see three main tabs:

The Agenda (under your 'Home' tab) shows all of your events for the day across connected calendars. You can quickly see your schedule, take actions like joining meetings or opening them in your calendar, and identify any scheduling conflicts directly within Slack.

You can also pull up your agenda from anywhere in Slack using the /reclaim agenda command.

Under the Tasks tab of the integration within the Home page, you can see and modify all the Tasks you've created within Reclaim, as well as create new tasks.

Every task here has actions you can take to start it sooner, reschedule it, mark it done, or edit its details (e.g., due date, priority, title, and so on) using the ... menu. To create a new task, click New Task:

You can also create Tasks directly from Slack messages to schedule time for follow-ups. This is very similar to the workflow for creating Tasks from Gmail. To do this:

From the Scheduling Links tab under the Home page of the app, you can access all of your Reclaim Scheduling Links as well as create brand-new ones.

Click on the title of any Scheduling Link to open it up or copy it to paste into a Slack message.

You can share a Scheduling Link in any channel or message by using /scheduling-link. If you only have one scheduling link, it will share it automatically, and if you have multiple ones, you'll be prompted to select which one you want to share:

The Settings tab in the Reclaim Slack app lets you control how your calendar, status, and notifications work together.

From here, you can manage:

You can access these settings in Slack under Home → Settings, or by typing /reclaim settings from anywhere in Slack.

You can also manage your Slack notification settings in the Reclaim web app under Settings → Notifications.

The Messages tab is where Reclaim delivers all your notifications, including event updates, reminders, and daily and weekly digests. This is your central view for keeping up with schedule changes and insights — right inside Slack.

You’ll see messages here when:

Each message includes quick-action buttons so you can respond or make changes directly — for example, accepting or declining a meeting, opening it in your calendar, or resolving conflicts in Reclaim Planner.

Your Daily Digest summarizes your agenda for the day, highlights any overlapping events, and lists meetings waiting for your RSVP.

Your Weekly Digest appears at the end of your workweek (based on your set working hours) and provides a summary of how you spent your time that week across different events, as well as a preview of potential conflicts in the week ahead.

Conflicts are displayed when overlapping events occur across your connected calendars, helping you stay aware of double-bookings. You can resolve them right from Slack with a quick-link to open them in your calendar or in Reclaim Planner.
