  4. Authorize: Review the permissions and authorize the Decimal app for your workspace.
After authorization, the Decimal bot will be available in your Slack workspace. You can invite it to channels or message it directly.

Using the Bot

  • DM the bot: Send a direct message to the Decimal bot with your question
  • Mention in a channel: Mention @Decimal in any channel where the bot has been invited
