You can now summon Amp in Slack.
Connect your workspace from Amp's settings, then
mention @Amp in any channel or thread. Amp sends your message to your personal
Puck, which can initiate bug fixes, spike new features, answer questions about
your codebase, and find and manipulate existing threads.
Here are a few examples of how we've been using it:
Fix a User Bug Report
A user reported a bug with a screenshot. Amp read the screenshot, reproduced the issue, and posted back a fix.
Resolve a Production Incident
A production alert posted to a Slack channel, Amp identified the likely culprit commit, pulled production logs to verify, and pushed a fix to the production Terraform config.
Close the Loop with Your Team
Two teammates investigated the same issue. One resolved it and asked Amp to ping the other user from their investigation thread. The other user then archived their ongoing threads from Slack.
Search Slack for Context
Amp can also search through Slack to pull discussions relevant to its current task. The Amp Slack integration compiled the examples used in this post.
Install the Slack Integration
- Open Workspace Integrations as an Amp workspace admin, select Connect a Slack Workspace, and authorize the Amp app in Slack. (If you don't yet have an Amp workspace, create one.)
- Individual users should link their Amp user directly with their Slack user in Personal Settings.
- Mention
@Ampin any Slack channel or thread.
