Integrate Aha! into my daily workflow with an improved Slack integration

Integrate Aha! Roadmaps into my daily workflow with a Slack app for Aha! Roadmaps.

I've included some of my common use cases below.

  • Help me start my day

    • Daily summary

      • I do two things when I log in for work: check Slack notifications and open Aha! I want Aha!

      • I'd love to be slacked a daily summary from Aha! -- include information like to-dos due, notifications, and any other data I set as relevant (i.e. features due soon, unreviewed ideas)

  • Help me keep work in Aha!

    • To-dos

      • I'll often get a slack that should be a to-do. I want an easy way to convert someone else's request into a to-do

    • Ideas

      • Coworker shares a brilliant idea in a Slack thread discussion. I want an easy way to add it to our ideas portal.

    • Features

      • Support asks if a behavior is a bug, and I confirm that it is after discussing it with Engineering. I slack them to create a bug. This would be far easier to do from Slack.

  • Help me answer questions quickly

    • Lookup relevant data

      • Colleague shares an Aha! link with me and asks if I have the latest status update? It's likely that all I need to see is the record name. I'd love for the slack integration to lookup that data and display it.

      • There are other instances where the assignee, status, release, sprint, or custom field value would be very helpful.

  • Help me keep people updated

    • Schedule delivery to Slack

      • It's already possible to email reports and dashboards, I'd love to be able to slack snapshots of Aha! dashboards and reports to specific Slack channels

    • Improve how the messages look in Slack

      • Specify the information included in each message

      • Better format the messages to make them easy to read

    • Improve how Slack messages are triggered

      • Only show messages that contain a specific tag or match a custom field query

      • Exclude messages that aren't relevant - show me a record when the status changes, not when the description is updated

  • Attach files

Slack to Aha Integration - Include a description in the Feature or Idea submission

Merged
For users sending an idea or feature to Aha! from Slack it would be helpful to be able to optionally include a description from Slack instead of having to open Aha! to add it. The button link that opens the idea or feature is nice, but the ability...

Slack Integration

Your Slack integration is very weak compared to Product Board's. Not only do you have to be an Aha user to submit (Product Board you don't), you can only push the title of the idea and then have to go into ideas to update applicable fields. This i...

Add Product Name on Slack Integraiton

We use the slack integration for PMs to know what each other is up to. It would be great to see the Product name as we change other details for each initiative. This makes it clear what product is changing.

Slack integration does not distinguish between internal vs external user

Slack to Aha integration - remember last selected product

It's annoying having to select the product every time. It would be good if it remembered and defaulted to the last selected product. In the case when you only have a single product, it would be good to just use that one without asking.
