How to Connect Slack to Tenor

Connecting Slack to Tenor enables you to interact with Tenor’s AI Coach directly in a private Slack thread, making it easy to access leadership learning and practice conversations on the go, 24/7. Whether you're between meetings or winding down for the day, your coach is just a message away.


💡 Important Notes:

  • Only users with Tenor Admin access can set up Slack integrations.
  • To use the AI Coach directly from Slack, the Slack user's profile email must match the email associated with their account in Tenor. If the emails don’t match, the integration will not recognize the user. To clarify, usernames and emails are case-sensitive, so the casing needs to match in Tenor.

Follow the steps below to set up the Slack integration:
