Slack
Approvals, alerts and slash commands in your team's channel
Your team already lives in Slack. Orquiva drops in: button-driven approvals, /orqui commands to query, and real-time alerts — no extra tab required.
WHAT IT DOES
Slack in Orquiva
Interactive Block Kit approvals
Time-off, expenses and signatures land in the manager's channel with Approve/Reject buttons. The decision flows back to Orquiva in seconds.
/orqui slash commands
/orqui whoisout, /orqui my-leave, /orqui my-balance — instant queries without leaving chat.
Channel-targeted alerts
Pick which channel gets which event: #people for absences, #ops for time-tracking, #finance for expenses.
Automatic user mapping
Orquiva maps Slack emails to your employees on install. Unmatched users are surfaced to the admin.
WHAT IT DOESN'T DO (YET)
What we admit without dressing up. Need something missing? Tell us and it joins the roadmap.
-
Private approval DMs are limited to 1:1 — N:1 flows (multiple approvers) post to a channel.
-
Slash commands only work in workspaces where the app was installed by an admin.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does it work on Slack Enterprise Grid? +
Yes. The app installs at workspace level; on Grid each workspace manages its channels independently.
Who can approve from the button? +
Only the approver assigned in Orquiva. Anyone else clicking gets an ephemeral message saying so.
