Want to add visual personality and express yourself dynamically in your Slack conversations? This guide shows you how to easily send GIFs to your teammates. The most common method involves having the Giphy integration enabled in your workspace. If it is, simply type the /giphy slash command followed by a keyword (e.g., /giphy excited) into your message box, and Giphy will present a relevant GIF. You can also directly paste a GIF link from a website like Giphy.com, or upload a GIF file just like any other attachment. It's Friday evening here in Japan, perfect for adding some animated fun to your chats!
