Slack Integration

Fit time tracking into your workflow by tracking time from Slack. With the Toggl + Slack integration, you can:

Start tracking time — use /toggl start in any channel to start a timer.
Log time entries — use /toggl track to add time entries manually.
Get reminders to track time or submit your timesheet.
Quickly see how much time you’ve tracked — use /toggl timesheet
Chat with the AI bot to see a summary of your time.

Set up the integration

Before you can use the Slack integration, you need to connect your Toggl organization to your Slack workspace.

You must be a Toggl organization admin to connect the integration.

Click on the “Integrations” tab in Track sidebar

Find the Slack integration

Click “Get started” to open the admin console

In the admin console, click “Connect Toggl to Slack”

You’ll be asked to give permissions to connect Toggl to Slack

Toggl is in the process of having the app approved by Slack Marketplace, but until it is, you will see "App is not approved by Slack" message.

You’ll see a confirmation message once the connection is successful. You can now open Slack and try /toggl help to see the list of commands.

Connect your Toggl account to Slack

Once Toggl is installed in your Slack workspace, any team member can connect their Toggl account.

If a team member wants to use the Slack integration, they need to connect their own Toggl account.

To connect your account, navigate to the Toggl app in your Slack workspace and click “Connect”.

Slash commands

You can use these slash commands in any channel in your workspace.

Command	Description
`/toggl start`	Start a timer.
`/toggl start website redesign`	Start a timer with the description “Website redesign”.
`/toggl stop`	Stop your active timer. You can add a description, project, client, task and tags.
`/toggl track`	Track time for a specific date and time. You can also add a description, project, client, task and tags.
`/toggl track website redesign`	Track time with the description “Website redesign”.
`/toggl connect`	Link a Slack channel to a Toggl project (and client). All time tracked from that channel will automatically be assigned to the project.
`/toggl timesheet`	View your timesheets.
`/toggl help`	Get help with the Slack integration.
`/toggl feedback`	Share feedback about this integration or any Toggl product.

Connect to a workspace

The first time you track time, you will be asked which workspace you want to use. Going forward time will be tracked to that workspace automatically. You can change this setting at any time from the app homepage. Note that this setting only impacts your user.

Link channels to projects

To save time, you can link Slack channels to Toggl projects:

Navigate to the channel you want to connect

Type /toggl connect

Choose the project (and client) from the dropdown menu

The channel will be connected to the project in Track

Now, any time a team member starts a timer in that channel, the time entry will automatically be assigned to that project.

AI bot

You can chat with the AI bot from the “Messages” tab in the app homepage. The bot can help you with:

Starting/stopping a timer
Summarising your work for yesterday or the past week

AI Bot
