Access and Permissions

By default, Slack notifications are only available for your account's public Slack channels. To allow exports to a private channel, add the @Sigma Notifications bot to that channel by typing @Sigma Notifications directly in the channel. 

When a Sigma user sends or schedules a notification, they have the option to choose whether the notification will include a link to the worksheet or dashboard in Sigma.  Anyone viewing the notification in Slack must have a Sigma account with access granted on the report to view it live in Sigma.
