Slack (Slackbot)
Who is this for?
- For teams who work in Slack every day and want to query their Leexi calls without leaving Slack.
- Each user connects their own Leexi account and only sees their own calls.
Permissions and licenses
- License required: an active Leexi account on a paid plan.
- Installing the Leexi app in the Slack workspace is reserved for administrators; it is done once for the whole company.
How to use it
Slackbot can connect to the Leexi MCP server: it automatically discovers the Leexi tools and invokes them based on your questions. The Leexi app for Slack already ships with the MCP server configuration, so there is nothing to create on the Slack side.
Settings > Integrations), the same one used for Slack notifications. There is no "MCP only" installation: authorizing the app enables both uses. If you would rather not install the Leexi app, see the Create your own Slack app section below.Install the Leexi app in your Slack workspace
In Leexi, go to Settings > Integrations, start activating the Slack integration, then click Authorize on the Slack authorization screen. This step is reserved for administrators and is only needed once per workspace.
Add Leexi to Slackbot
Open a direct message with Slackbot, click the Apps button in the toolbar, then click the + button next to Leexi.
Authorize your Leexi account
Slack redirects you to Leexi. Sign in with your account, then click Authorize. Leexi then appears under Your apps, with a Manage button to manage or remove the connection.
Ask your questions
Write to Slackbot in natural language, for example:
- "What tools are available from Leexi?"
- "Show me my calls from last week with TechCorp."
- "Summarize the follow-up tasks from my last meeting with Contoso."
- "How do I set up the Salesforce integration in Leexi?"
Slackbot asks for your approval before every tool call: Allow once to permit it a single time, Always allow to stop being prompted, or Deny to refuse it.

What Slackbot can do
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
query_calls | Searches your calls by date, participant, team, client, and more |

query_resources | Searches the Leexi product documentation |
fetch_resource_details | Retrieves the full content of documentation articles |
Access is strictly read-only: Slackbot cannot create, modify, or delete anything in Leexi.
Create your own Slack app
If you prefer a Slack app dedicated to MCP, without Leexi's notification integration, create your own Slack app and point it at the Leexi MCP server:
- Create an app on api.slack.com/apps and add the
mcp:connectbot scope. - Under Features > MCP Servers, add a server with the URL
https://api.leexi.ai/mcp. - Choose the Dynamic Client Registration authentication type: the Leexi server exposes its own OAuth configuration and registers the client automatically.
- Install the app in your workspace, then resume at the Add Leexi to Slackbot step above.
The full procedure on the Slack side is described in Connecting an MCP server to the Slackbot MCP Client.
Authentication
The Leexi MCP server uses OAuth 2.0 with PKCE and supports Dynamic Client Registration: no Client ID or secret has to be entered manually. If your Slack app cannot register automatically, Slack also offers manual OAuth authentication — contact support@leexi.ai to get the corresponding settings.
Frequently asked questions
Settings > Integrations and that the app has been authorized in your workspace. If it was just reinstalled, reopen the conversation with Slackbot to refresh the list.Things to watch out for
- Slackbot aborts any tool call that takes longer than 60 seconds. A very broad search can therefore fail: narrow your filters (period, participant, client) to get an answer.
- Every tool call must be explicitly authorized by the user. Until you respond, Slackbot does not query Leexi.
- Leexi data sent to Slack is processed under Slack's terms of use. Leexi's retention and security guarantees (GDPR, ISO 27001) only cover processing carried out within the Leexi platform.
- Access is strictly read-only: no creation, modification, or deletion is possible via the MCP server.
