• Access to Faheem Code Cloud.

Installation steps

Install Slack app (only for Slack admins/owners)

Authorize Slack app (for all Slack workspace members)

Make sure your Slack workspace admin/owner has installed Faheem Code Slack App first.

Every user in the Slack workspace (including admins/owners) must link their Faheem Code Cloud account to the Faheem Code Slack App. To do this:

Working with the Slack app

To start a new conversation, you can mention @faheem-code in a new message or a thread inside any Slack channel.

Once a conversation is started, all thread messages underneath it will be follow-up messages to Faheem Code.

To send follow-up messages for the same conversation, mention @faheem-code in a thread reply to the original message. You must be the user who started the conversation.

Pro tip

You can mention a repo name when starting a new conversation in the following formats

1. "My-Repo" repo (e.g @faheem-code in the faheemcode repo ...)
2. "SMART-National-Solution/faheem-code-app" (e.g @faheem-code in SMART-National-Solution/faheem-code-app ...)

The repo match is case insensitive. If a repo name match is made, it will kick off the conversation. If the repo name partially matches against multiple repos, you'll be asked to select a repo from the filtered list.
