Publishing Your Newsletter

Publishing Commands

When you're happy with your draft, tell the bot to publish it. Any of these commands will work:

• upload — Send to your connected platform
• looks good — Approve and upload
• publish — Upload the draft
• send — Send to your platform
• ship it — Approve and upload
• done — Finish and upload

What Happens When You Publish

When you publish, Slackletter will:

1. Format your draft for your connected platform
2. Upload it as a draft (not published to subscribers)
3. Provide a link to view/edit in your platform

Platform-Specific Behavior

Notion

Creates a new page under your configured parent page. The page title uses your subject line, and the content is formatted with Notion blocks.

Beehiiv

Creates a draft post in your publication. You can then edit and schedule it from the Beehiiv dashboard.

Mailchimp

Creates a draft campaign. Subject line and content are pre-filled. You'll need to select your audience before sending.

Kit (ConvertKit)

Creates a draft broadcast. Edit and schedule from your Kit dashboard.

Ghost

Creates a draft blog post. The content is formatted as HTML for Ghost's editor.

EmailOctopus

Creates a draft campaign. You can then edit and send it from your EmailOctopus dashboard.

Customer.io

Creates a draft newsletter. Edit and send from your Customer.io workspace.

Without a Connected Platform

If you haven't connected an email platform, you can still use Slackletter:

• Copy the draft text from Slack
• Paste into your email platform manually
• The formatting (headers, bullets, links) will be preserved

To connect a platform later, visit the Connections tab in your dashboard.
