If Slack isn’t working for you
Slack is Salesforce's workplace messaging app for channels, direct messages, huddles and integrations.
Common Slack errors

Is it just you?
- Compare the Slack desktop app, the mobile app and app.slack.com in a browser.
- Turn off VPNs and proxies, which Slack's connection troubleshooting covers; company networks sometimes block Slack.
- Check slack-status.com; Slack incidents often affect one feature such as messaging, huddles or notifications.
- If only an integration fails, check the app's token and channel membership.

Questions
Either Slack is having an incident or something on your network (VPN, proxy, firewall) blocks it. Check slack-status.com and try another network or the mobile app on cellular data.
Most Slack incidents affect some features or some workspaces. Slack's status page lists what is affected, and this page shows our own checks alongside it.
