== How to use Slack's RSS app == | |||
# Go to Slack's website - [https://slack.com/ click here] - and create a free account; | |||
# Download Slack for the operating system that you are using by searching on Google, ( example "Slack for Windows" ) or by clicking the links here according to the operating system that you are using : [https://slack.com/downloads/windows Windows] , [https://slack.com/downloads/mac MacOS] , [https://slack.com/downloads/linux Linux] . In case you are using a smartphone, search for " Slack " on your App Store or Google Play and download it; | |||
# Create a workspace ( mandatory ). Once you are logged in, you will have to answer 3 questions: Company name ( can be anything ), Add teammates ( click on "Skip this step" ) and Workspace name ( example : InvestmentWikiWatchlist). (Or join our Slack Workspace [https://join.slack.com/t/blockpearl/shared_invite/zt-1pn6oi1za-iOVcpx6uWgvVb4PXPBC89g here]) ; | |||
# Add the RSS Feed URL for the feed you want to keep up to date with. For our purposes we will go the Watchlist from our InvestmentWiki account by clicking on it in the top-right corner of the page ( you can do that from any article or from the [[Main Page]] . When looking at your watchlist, on the left-side you can see the text " '''Atom''' " next to an icon ( picture attached ) . Now that you've clicked on Atom you will be faced with a very weird page full of code. All you have to do is copy the URL ( the page's address) ; | |||
# Now add the Feed's URL and scroll down to "Select a channel" and select "Direct messages" ( or create a new channel) . Now click "Save". | |||
