When the Slack integration is connected, any Exante URL pasted in a Slack channel or DM automatically shows a rich, contextual preview. This saves time — your team can see key details without opening a browser.

​
How it works

  1. A user pastes an Exante URL (e.g. https://app.exante.com/invoices/abc-123) in a Slack message.
  2. Slack detects the URL and sends a link_shared event to the Exante app.
  3. Exante fetches the entity details and responds with a formatted Block Kit preview.
  4. Slack renders the preview inline below the message.

​
Supported URLs

URL patternEntityPreview shows
/invoices/:uidInvoiceInvoice number, party name, amount, status, due date
/documents/:uidDocumentTitle, document type, status
/parties/:uidPartyName, email
Unsupported URLs (e.g. /settings, /dashboard) are silently ignored — no error is shown.

​
Example

When an invoice URL is shared, the preview looks like this: 
┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Invoice #1042 — Acme Corp               │
│ Amount: $4,200.00 · Status: Overdue     │
│ Due: Jan 15, 2026                       │
│                                         │
│ [View Invoice]                          │
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘

​
Action buttons

Preview cards include a View button that opens the entity in the Exante web app. These are standard URL links, not interactive Slack actions.
Interactive actions (e.g. “Send Reminder” directly from Slack) are planned for a future release.
