Why Integrate ChatGPT with Slack?

With ChatGPT inside Slack, your team can:

  • Get instant AI-powered responses.
  • Automate customer service inquiries.
  • Streamline internal communication and decision-making.
  • Improve productivity by reducing time spent searching for information.

Step 1: Install the Adaptus2 Plugin for Slack

The Adaptus2-Framework Plugin provides a bridge between Slack and ChatGPT. To install it:

  1. Download the Adaptus2 Plugin: Get the latest version from the official Adaptus2 repository.
  2. Deploy the Plugin: Install and configure it on your server or cloud environment.
  3. Set Up Slack API Access:
    • Register an app on the Slack API Dashboard.
    • Obtain the Slack Bot Token and Signing Secret.
    • Enable event subscriptions for real-time message processing.

Step 2: Configure the Adaptus2 Plugin

Now, connect the plugin to Slack and ChatGPT:

  1. Set up environment variables in your server: export CHATGPT_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key export SLACK_BOT_TOKEN=your_slack_bot_token export SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET=your_slack_signing_secret
  2. Restart the Adaptus2 server to apply changes.

Step 3: How ChatGPT Appears in Slack

Once set up, ChatGPT can be accessed within Slack in the following ways:

  1. As a Direct Messaging Bot
    • Users can message ChatGPT directly for AI-powered responses.
    • The bot will process /ai commands and return real-time answers.
  2. In Slack Channels
    • ChatGPT can be added to specific channels to assist with discussions.
    • The bot will respond when mentioned (@ChatGPT) or when /ai is used.
  3. As an Interactive Message Button (Optional)
    • Users can click a button to trigger ChatGPT responses without typing commands.

Does the Plugin Create a Slack Channel Automatically?

  • No, the plugin does not create a Slack channel by default.
  • However, an admin can manually create a dedicated “ChatGPT AI Help” channel.
  • If required, the plugin can be modified to automatically create a Slack channel upon installation.

Step 4: Start Using ChatGPT in Slack

Once everything is set up:

  • Type /ai your question in any Slack chat where the bot is present.
  • ChatGPT will process the request and respond in real-time.
  • Use it for brainstorming, answering FAQs, summarizing conversations, and more.

Troubleshooting & Tips

  • Bot not responding? Check if the Slack API keys are set up correctly.
  • Delayed responses? Ensure your server has a stable connection.
