This opens the Submission Checklist, which gives you a detailed list of items looked at during the review (here's an overview). To get started, you click on the ' Manage Distribution' section of your app's configuration page, accessible from /apps. Yay teamwork! (Learn more about App Collaborators.) Starting your submission

Since you know you might be out of the office when the review team gets back to you, you also add one of your Slack team members as a collaborator on the app, allowing them to check in on the submission and make any changes necessary during and after the review process. You're excited at the thought that just a week from now, your app will be published and searchable in the App Directory (conditions may vary depending on temperature, humidity level, and any feedback the review team has for you). You notice that Slack has a new way of building apps, allowing you to add a bot user with only the particular scopes it needs, so you update your app to use the new permissions.Īfter spending weeks writing and testing your app, you're ready to submit it to the Slack App Directory. Luckily, you see the Slack App Directory is just the place to share your app with other teams who might also benefit from using it. So you start to wonder, maybe there are other Slack teams who would find it just as handy as your team does? It's been helping your team be more productive and everyone's talking about what a difference it's made.

It's Monday again and everyone's excited to jump into Slack and use the new Slack app you've built. Please note that your app does not need to be listed in the App Directory for it to work, so no need to submit any apps used only by your team. If you haven't yet built your Slack app but are curious about how to do so, head over to see our other tutorials and documentation about building a Slack app. This guide covers how to submit your app to the Slack App Directory.
