# Enjoy Slack-Powered Collaboration in New Salesforce Orgs

Salesforce channels bring Slack directly into Salesforce, and now they’re easier to access than ever. Salesforce channels are set up and ready to go in orgs created in Summer ’26 and later—no manual configuration required.

**Where:** This change applies to Lightning Experience in new orgs in Enterprise and Unlimited editions.

**Who:** Salesforce channels are available to users with a Salesforce, Salesforce Platform Login, Lightning Platform - One App, Company Community User, or Force.com - App Subscription user license.

**How:** When an org is created, a Slack workspace is also created and configured to use with Salesforce. Salesforce channels are automatically configured for these objects.

- Account
- Opportunity
- Case
- Lead
- Contact
- Order
- Contract
- Asset
- Quote\*
- Campaign\*

\*Only if the object is included in your edition.

To turn on Salesforce channels for additional objects, in Setup, search for and select **Slack Channels for Records**. Click **Add objects** and follow the prompts.

If you have features that require access to Chatter functionality or APIs, enable Chatter in Setup. For example, turn on Chatter to use Case Feed, include Chatter in an Experience Cloud site, or use Chatter in orgs where Slack is unsupported. This change doesn’t affect orgs created before Summer ’26.")
