With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/slack\/slack-surfaces-transforms-enterprise-data\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Slackforce Surfaces<\/a>, you can describe to Slackbot what you need, and it will use AI to gather information from relevant conversations and connected apps, like Google Drive or Salesforce, to create it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Once Slackbot creates a Surface, you can share it with colleagues and pin it to channels, allowing other people to view it, interact with it, and leave comments. In one example shared by Slack, a user asks Slackbot for help creating an arcade-themed visualization of AI token usage. The AI assistant then generates an interactive dashboard showing token usage across different divisions, such as sales, design, and engineering.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">\u201cYou\u2019re not exporting your data to some other tool to make sense of it, you\u2019re asking Slackbot to build the dashboard, the deck, the report right where the conversation already is, and your whole team can act on it together,\u201d Ryan Gavin, Slack\u2019s chief marketing officer, tells The Verge in an email.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">It seems like there are many other ways to use Surfaces, too, like building a live dashboard for a customer support queue that other workers can view, or creating a weather-themed financial forecast that pulls in data from connected apps. Slack notes that the feature will only pull information that you\u2019ve given its AI tools permission to access.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Slackforce Surfaces is available to all customers \u2014 including those who use it for free \u2014 with Slackbot enabled in their workspace. You\u2019ll be able to use it with live data starting in October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A new feature coming to Slack will allow you to build interactive reports, polls, dashboards, presentations, microsites, and&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":844118,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[182,8543,3,172,74],"class_list":["post-844117","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-ai","tag-apps","tag-news","tag-tech","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/844117","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=844117"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/844117\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/844118"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=844117"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=844117"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=844117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
