    How to Send Recognition in Slack

    Once your Kudos Admin or Super Admin has connected Kudos to Slack, you can send recognition to any Slack user in your organization by using the /Kudos command. Give it a try, and you’ll notice a slick new dialogue box that guides you through the process of sending a recognition message. You can also use the @ symbol to tag a recipient in addition to including a message in your /Kudos command like this:

    Eg.  /Kudos @emilyK Great work on those employee engagement posters. They look awesome!

    The new dialogue allows you to choose your recognition recipient, type or reword your message, select the level of recognition you’re sending, and attach up to two Kudos Qualities. Once you hit submit, you’ve officially sent recognition using the new Slack integration!
