# Integration for Slack

Install the Drivetrain bot for Slack to receive Drivetrain notifications in your Slack, with the sender’s name, the comment and a link to the page.

This enables users to access comments with complete context on Slack without needing to check e-mail or Drivetrain's in-app notifications to keep up with the conversations.

To install the integration, two requirements need to be fulfilled:

{% hint style="info" %}
After the Slack for Drivetrain integration has been installed, you will start receiving notifications of private comments made on Drivetrain reports, sheets and models if you're tagged.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you use multiple tenants, the Drivetrain bot for Slack needs to be enabled on each tenant as outlined above.&#x20;

However, you will receive notifications only from the last tenant that was connected.
