Slackbot MCP integration
Sends and schedules automated posts, sets reminders, writes canvases and files, and searches history so a scripted reply matches a real answer.
85actions available
Three actions you can hand over today
Every action runs live through MCP. Nothing to build, nothing to maintain.
Schedule message
Ayro schedules a message to a Slack channel or DM for a future send time. An update or reminder goes out automatically without anyone needing to remember to send it.
Add reaction to message
Ayro adds an emoji reaction to a Slack message to acknowledge it. A teammate gets quick confirmation their message was seen without anyone typing a separate reply.
Search messages
Ayro searches across a Slack workspace for messages matching a date range or filter. Agents find a past conversation in seconds instead of scrolling back manually.
How businesses use Slackbot + Ayro
Each card is one request a support team gets, and the Slackbot actions Ayro runs to close it.
Post the automated notification people will actually read
Ayro sends the message into the channel that owns the topic, or an ephemeral one visible only to the person who needs it, so routine posts stop being noise for everyone else.
Send MessageSend Ephemeral MessageOpen DMTime a scripted message and follow it up
Ayro schedules the post for working hours, sets the reminder that chases it, and deletes the scheduled message if the reason for it disappears first.
Schedule MessageCreate a ReminderDelete Scheduled MessageAnswer from what has already been said
Before a canned reply goes out, Ayro searches messages and reads the thread around a hit so the automated answer matches what a colleague already told someone.
Search MessagesFetch Conversation HistoryRetrieve Conversation RepliesPut the long answer somewhere it survives
When a reply is too long to live in the scroll, Ayro writes it as a canvas or uploads it as a file and pins it in the channel.

How it works
Get started in 3 steps
Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Ayro reads the Slackbot actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.
Connect Slackbot
Authorize the Slackbot account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Ayro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.
Tell your agent what you need
Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Ayro maps it to the Slackbot actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.
Watch it work
The agent runs the actions inside the conversation the customer is already in, so nobody copies data between tabs and your team can take over at any point.

FAQ
Everything else about Slackbot
Setup, permissions, and the limits of what Ayro can do inside Slackbot.
It is the messaging surface without the administration one. The 85 actions cover posting, scheduling, reminders, files, canvases, and search, but the workspace and Enterprise Grid admin actions - adding users to a workspace, reading audit logs, restricting apps - are not part of it.
Every action available in Slackbot
All 85 actions your agent can call on Slackbot, straight from the live MCP connection.
Add call participants
Registers new participants added to a Slack call.
Add reaction to message
Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a Slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.
Add a remote file
Adds a reference to an external file (e.g., Google Drive, Dropbox) to Slack for discovery and sharing, requiring a unique external_id and an external_url accessible by Slack.
Archive a slack conversation
Archives a Slack conversation by its ID, rendering it read-only and hidden while retaining history, ideal for cleaning up inactive channels; be aware that some channels (like #general or certain DMs) cannot be archived and this may impact connected integrations.
Close conversation channel
Closes a Slack direct message (DM) or multi-person direct message (MPDM) channel, removing it from the user's sidebar without deleting history; this action affects only the calling user's view.
Create a reminder
Creates a Slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts Unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every Thursday at 2pm').
Create slack canvas
Creates a new Slack Canvas with the specified title and optional content.
Create channel
Initiates a public or private channel-based conversation in a Slack workspace.
Create a slack user group
Creates a new User Group (often referred to as a subteam) in a Slack workspace.
Customize URL unfurl
Customizes URL previews (unfurling) in a specific Slack message using a URL-encoded JSON in unfurls to define custom content or remove existing previews.
Delete slack canvas
Deletes a Slack Canvas permanently and irreversibly.
Delete a file by ID
Permanently deletes an existing file from a Slack workspace using its unique file ID; this action is irreversible and also removes any associated comments or shares.
Delete file comment

Delete a slack reminder
Deletes an existing Slack reminder, typically when it is no longer relevant or a task is completed; this operation is irreversible.
Delete a message from a chat

Delete scheduled chat message
Deletes a pending, unsent scheduled message from the specified Slack channel, identified by its scheduled_message_id.
Disable a slack user group
Disables a specified, currently enabled Slack User Group by its unique ID, effectively archiving it by setting its 'date_delete' timestamp; the group is not permanently deleted and can be re-enabled.
