![]() I'm just surprised the official client won't let me as a user subscribe to them. Interestingly, Slack's own API does expose presence events, e.g. Searching online for "slack notify when someone comes online" just yields irrelevant articles listing UI features of Slack that I was already aware of. And to my surprise, there doesn't seem to be a way to tell Slack to notify me if a particular contact changes status, or specifically, is no-longer marked as away or not-signed-in-on-any-device. Other systems, like Lync (Skype for Business), Skype, all the way back to MSN Messenger, allowed me to receive notifications when contacts came online.Īs Slack works on a disconnected model across all of a users' devices the concept of "coming online" or "going offline" / "signing out" doesn't really apply to Slack, but Slack does still classify users as being online/available, idle, away and sleeping. I am using the first-party Slack desktop client for Windows.
