Why use Slack with Ping?

Keep context

The original message stays one click away when a task needs more detail.

Make requests actionable

Move from “I’ll remember this” to a clear task with an owner and a next step.

Protect your focus

Collect work in Ping instead of leaving important requests buried in chat.

  3. Connect Slack. Select Connect, authorize Ping, and return to your Slack workspace.
  4. Create your first task. Use Add a task on any Slack message and continue planning it in Ping.

Slack integration FAQ

What does the Slack integration do?

Ping lets you turn a Slack message into an actionable task with a clear title, message context, and a link back to the original thread.

Can I edit the task after creating it from Slack?

Yes. Once the task is created, you can add a deadline, reminder, project, tags, or an assignee in Ping and keep the original Slack link for context.

Do I need to copy and paste Slack messages?

No. Use Add a task on the Slack message and Ping carries the useful message content into the new task.

Can I return to the original Slack thread?

Yes. The Ping task keeps a direct link back to the Slack message so you can check the conversation whenever you need more context.
