# Slack integration

Now you can integrate Updraft with Slack and start receiving notifications in when the following events take place:

* A **new build** of your app has been uploaded or an update is available
  * A slack notification always redirects to the specific build to download it
* A **new feedback** of your app has been received **by your app testers**

{% hint style="success" %}
Integrate Updraft in your Slack in your team is quite simple and the configuration will take you less than 1 minute.&#x20;
{% endhint %}
