Lists

Lists allow you to organize, collaborate, and align on projects - right where the work is already happening in Slack. Use Lists to manage tasks, track and prioritize work, and more.

Here are some use cases for Lists to inspire you:

✨ Use a List in a feedback channel to organize and prioritize work. The Lists API could be used to pull information from the List into the channel to create weekly reports for increased collaboration and visibility.

✨ Collaborate on a List in a cross-functional project channel to bring multiple data streams together in the channel, assign work, check the status of important tasks, and ensure that multiple teams are aligned on deadlines and deliverables. Workflows and automations can also be used on the List to pull relevant data to the forefront of the conversation.

✨ Create a List for a specific project to gather all the relevant details and stakeholders in one place, and to track and manage project work from start to finish. Lists have some distinct advantages over database queries, traditional spreadsheets, and web views, as you can create your own custom views and @-mention stakeholders so they are notified right in Slack.

Lists can be added to Slack apps via the Slack Web API.
