# How-to Guide: Connect Slack to Ledge

Connect your Ledge workspace to Slack to receive close-management notifications in Slack: task assignments, status changes, comments, overdue summaries, monitor alerts, and activity updates.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: You must be signed in to Ledge, and have permission to install apps in your Slack workspace, to complete this guide.
{% endhint %}

#### Install the Slack integration

1. Sign in to [Ledge](https://app.goledge.io/) and open **Settings** from the left sidebar
2. Select the **Account** tab and scroll to the **Slack integration** section
3. Click **Connect Slack** — you will be redirected to Slack's authorization page
4. Select the Slack workspace you want to connect and click **Allow**
5. You will be returned to Ledge and see a **Slack connected successfully** confirmation before being redirected back to **Settings**

#### Notifications delivered to Slack

Once connected, Ledge will send the following to Slack:

1. **Task assignments** — a direct message when a Ledge task is assigned to you, with a link back to the task
2. **Status changes** — notifications when a task you own or follow moves to in-review, completed, or back to open
3. **Comments and @mentions** — the comment content and a link to the task as soon as a teammate replies or mentions you
4. **Overdue summaries** — a periodic digest of items assigned to you that have slipped past their due date
5. **Monitor alerts** — notifications from Ledge monitors when thresholds are crossed or reconciliations break
6. **Activity updates** — relevant activity-log events delivered to Slack
