# AI Concierge: Slack Notifications

> Get a Slack message the moment the AI Concierge captures a new lead, so your team can follow up while the guest is still warm.

---

## What it does

When a guest shares their contact details through the AI Concierge, that lead is one of the most valuable things the concierge produces, but only if someone acts on it quickly. An email notification is easy to miss in a busy inbox, and the longer a lead sits unanswered, the colder it gets.

Slack Notifications close that gap. When the AI Concierge captures a lead, this integration posts a tidy message to the Slack channel you choose, alongside the operator email that already goes out. Your team sees new leads where they already work and can pick them up right away.

Each Slack message includes:

- The guest's **name** and **email**, plus their **phone** number if they shared one.
- A short **conversation summary** of what the guest was looking for and where the chat left off, so whoever responds has context without reading the full transcript.
- The **properties shown in chat**, linked straight to their listings.
- A **View lead in WordPress** button that opens the full lead record in your dashboard.

Slack is the integration available today, and notifications are sent when a guest submits the lead form in the concierge.

## How to turn it on

### 1. Create a Slack incoming webhook

In Slack, create an **Incoming Webhook** for the channel where you want lead notifications to land, and copy the webhook URL it gives you. Slack walks you through this in their [incoming webhooks guide](https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks).

### 2. Turn on the integration

In your **AI Concierge** settings, open the **Integrations** tab and switch on **Slack Notifications**.

### 3. Paste the webhook URL

Paste the URL you copied into the **Slack Webhook URL** field.

### 4. Send a test message

Click **Send test message**. A confirmation should appear in your Slack channel within a few seconds. Once you see it, save your settings.

Notifications begin as soon as the toggle is on and a webhook URL is saved. Both are required, so a saved toggle with an empty URL sends nothing.

## Settings

| Setting | What it controls |
| --- | --- |
| **Slack Notifications** | Turns the Slack integration on or off. Off by default. When on, a Slack message is sent each time a guest submits their contact details through the concierge. |
| **Slack Webhook URL** | The incoming webhook address for the Slack channel that should receive lead notifications. This and the toggle both have to be set for any message to send. |
| **Send test message** | Posts a sample notification to your channel so you can confirm the connection before relying on it. You can test a URL you have just typed in, before saving it. |

## Tips

- This integration rides on top of [Lead Capture](/docs/ai-concierge-lead-capture/). Leads have to be captured for Slack messages to fire, and the operator email still sends as well.
- Not seeing messages? Check that the **Slack Notifications** toggle is on and a valid **Slack Webhook URL** is saved, then click **Send test message** to confirm the connection. A Slack outage never blocks lead capture, so your leads are always saved in WordPress even if a message fails to send.
- For the wider set of tools the concierge gives your team, see [Operator Tools](/docs/ai-concierge-operator-tools/) and the [AI Concierge Overview](/docs/homerunner-ai-concierge-overview/).
