Postbeam + Slack
Every time someone on your team publishes a LinkedIn post, Postbeam pings the Slack channel you choose - with a direct link - so the whole team can jump in, like, and comment while the post is hot.

A post nobody sees is a post that never happened
Teams that engage with each other's posts reach dramatically more people. The hard part is knowing when to engage - that's what this integration solves.
Win the first hour
LinkedIn's algorithm decides a post's reach early. When your team likes and comments right away, the post gets shown to far more people.
One channel, whole team
Every post lands in the Slack channel where your team already works. Nobody has to scroll LinkedIn hoping to catch it.
No awkward nudges
Stop DM-ing “can you like my post?” The bot announces every post automatically, so engaging becomes a habit, not a favor.
How it works in Slack
Set it up once - then every post becomes a team moment.
Your whole team is notified to engage
The moment a monitored account publishes, Postbeam posts to your channel with a direct link to the post. One click and your team is liking and commenting - no searching, no missed posts.
Posts published through Postbeam notify instantly. Posts published directly on LinkedIn are picked up on scheduled checks during the day.
Add any account to notify when they post
Monitor your founders, execs, sellers, or the company page. Each account gets its own automation, so teams managing multiple LinkedIn profiles can route every voice to the right place.
Customize your message and channel
Pick any public or private channel, then make the notification sound like your team. Smart variables fill in the author, the post link, and the publish time automatically.
{author_name}{post_url}{timestamp}

Only the permissions it needs
Postbeam requests three Slack scopes - enough to post notifications where you ask it to, and nothing more. It never reads your message history or files.
chat:writeSend messages
Lets Postbeam post notifications into the channels you select - and nowhere else.
channels:readList public channels
Lets you pick a public channel from a dropdown instead of typing IDs.
groups:readList invited private channels
Shows private channels the bot has been invited to, so you can pick those too.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the Slack integration cost?
It's included with every Postbeam plan at no extra charge. Postbeam plans start at $49/month and come with a 7-day free trial.
Does it work with private channels?
Yes. Invite the bot to the private channel with /invite @Postbeam, then refresh the channel list in Postbeam. It works with both public and private channels.
When are notifications sent?
Posts published through Postbeam trigger a Slack notification instantly. Posts published directly on LinkedIn are detected during scheduled checks at 8:00 AM and 2:00 PM (your local time), so those notifications may be delayed.
Can I customize the notification message?
Yes. Edit the notification template and use the {author_name}, {post_url}, and {timestamp} variables to shape the message your team sees.
