# Connect your Slack account to bundle.social

> Complete guide to connecting your Slack workspace to bundle.social. Learn how to authorize permissions and set up Slack bots for automated posting.

<Warning>
  Discord and Slack is weird with their API's, to post content you need to use
  BOT's that you will create. <br />
  Don't worry it's their way of doing things not our magic so they wont ban you [**learn
  more**](/knowledge/posts/dc-slack-bots.mdx).
</Warning>

In this short tutorial you will learn how to connect your Slack account to bundle.social

<h2>First things first, create a team or be a part of one</h2>
If you don't know what the teams are, [click here](/knowledge/teams/what-are-teams)
to get up to speed.

## Connect your Slack account

bundle.social is built in a way that won't let you down. If you are in a team and
there is no social account connected, your dashboard will look like this.

<Frame type="glass">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/bundlesocial/hdzKNcwHOKKDs1Cc/images/knowledge/social-accounts/youtube/001_youtube.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=hdzKNcwHOKKDs1Cc&q=85&s=0c0be1e305843bba029a81047a89efd5" width="1881" height="910" data-path="images/knowledge/social-accounts/youtube/001_youtube.png" />
</Frame>

But if you are a new person joining an existing team, you will most likely see the
**Post** page first. If so, navigate to the left corner of the screen and press the
**Social accounts** button. Click it and *voilà*, you are in the right place.

Now, click **Connect** on the Slack tile.

</Frame>

Great, now allow all access for the app and click. **Allow**.

<Note>
  bundle.social staff does not have access to your account or account keys, we
  cannot delete your account.

</Frame>

After a successful connection, you will be redirected back to bundle.social, and
you should see a green popup on the right-hand side, and the Slack tile button
should say **Disconnect**.

## Errors

There should be no errors at this point, but if there are, it will be these two:

<Warning>Error connecting to Slack</Warning>
This can mean many things outside our control, maybe Slack had a bug or there was
a timeout. If you get this error, simply retry. Most often, it will help.

<Warning>
  You didn't grant all the necessary permissions
</Warning>

This means that you didn't grant all the permissions we need to post on your behalf. You can try to reconnect and grant all the permissions.

<Warning>
  You don't have enough permissions in any of your Slack workspaces.
</Warning>

You are probably not an admin for your Slack workspace.
