Chat with Lovable in Slack
You can connect Lovable to Slack to create apps, request updates, and ask questions about your projects inside channels or direct messages. Everything syncs with your Lovable workspace and shares your team's credits and permissions.
Teams using Slack who want to build, update, and manage Lovable apps directly within their daily team conversations.
Do this, in order
- 1
Navigate to Workspace settings in Lovable and select Slack.
A workspace owner or admin must start the integration setup from the workspace settings page.
- 2
Read the access summary and check the box acknowledging what Lovable can access in Slack.
Lovable keeps the connection button disabled until you confirm you understand the permission scope.
- 3
Click Connect Slack and approve the requested permissions in the Slack authorization window.
This grants Lovable permission to read mentions, reply in threads, and upload files in your Slack workspace.
- 4
In Slack, invite @Lovable to a channel or open a direct message with it.
Lovable only listens in direct messages or inside channels where it has been invited.
- 5
Send your request by mentioning @Lovable in a channel thread or writing to it directly in a direct message.
In channels, Lovable only responds when explicitly tagged with @Lovable on each message.
Paste this into your project
Build a tool to track team standup notes with fields for teammate names, daily updates, blockers, and an option to export notes.
Words decoded
- Thread
- A sub-conversation organized under a specific Slack message so replies do not clutter the main channel.
- Direct message (DM)
- A private one-on-one conversation between you and Lovable or another teammate.
- Slack Connect
- A Slack feature that lets two separate external organizations share the same channel.
Where people get stuck
- Lovable will not respond in a channel unless you mention @Lovable on every single request.
- Slack Connect channels shared with external organizations are not supported.
- Teammates must be members of your Lovable workspace to use the Slack bot; otherwise, Lovable cannot match them.
- This feature is for talking to Lovable inside Slack—it is not the Slack connector used to make your built app send alerts to Slack.
- If your Slack workspace was connected before August 24, 2026, an admin must disconnect and reconnect it to enable newer features like native file attachments and emoji reactions.
