    The Dialpad Meetings Slack integration allows users to launch and join meetings, share audio recordings and post call transcripts, and make Dialpad Meetings the default calling app. To enable the integration, users can do so from either Dialpad Meetings or Slack. Supported commands allow users to start meetings without leaving Slack. Additionally, Business Users can share a link to the meeting's recording and transcript with highlights after the call has ended.

    Supported Slack Commands

    The Dialpad Meetings Slack Integration supports a variety of commands, allowing you to start meetings without having to leave Slack. 

    /dialpadmeetings 
    Starts a meeting using your personal room in any direct message or channel
    /dialpadmeetings [your room ID] [title]
    Starts a meeting using your personal room with the title provided
    /dialpadmeeetings [username]
    Starts a meeting using the specified user's room
    /dialpadmeetings help
    Provides a list of supported commands

    Share Recordings and Post Call Transcripts

    As part of our Dialpad Ai feature, Dialpad Meetings Business Users can share a link to the meeting's recording and Call Summary, which includes a transcript and meeting highlights.

    After the Dialpad Meetings call has ended, and if Ai was turned on during the meeting, the organizer will get a prompt from Slack asking if they would like to share the summary. If the meeting organizer selects to share the summary, a link to access it will be shared in the Slack message or channel Dialpad Meetings was initiated from.

    Workspace Owners and Admins can make Dialpad Meetings the default calling app for their team’s Slack instance, which will launch meetings directly from the “call” button.
