Put all together, and you’ll get a URL like this: There, you’ll find a 3-dot button click it, and you’ll see the option, “Copy Member ID”. The User ID is not found in the URL bar instead, visit the member’s profile in Slack. In the URL bar, the string of characters starting with a “T” is your Team ID – e.g. I’ve found that the easiest way to find your Team ID is to open Slack in a web browser. To go straight to a DM, the URL template is: To get the most out of this shortcut, check out Slack’s deep-linking reference page to learn how these URLs need to be constructed. Since they’re not all in the same workspace, it can take a while to switch to the correct workspace whenever I want to send a message. I have several people across several Slack workspaces with whom I exchange messages on a near-daily basis. I’m building a course tentatively called Notion for Creators – sign up at that link to get notified when it becomes available. – Interested in how I use Notion to run my business, manage all my projects, and maintain a company wiki?

The Open URLs action can be used to launch specific pages in any app that allows for deep linking, such as Spotify.
