You can connect Kisi's Visitor Management with Slack to receive real-time notifications when a visitor checks in.

Create a Slack App with Incoming Webhooks

  2. Click Create New App.
  3. Select From Scratch.
  4. Name your app (e.g., "Kisi Visitors") and choose the workspace where you want to install it.
  5. Click Create App.
  6. In the left-hand menu, under Features, select Incoming Webhooks.
  7. Enable Incoming Webhooks by toggling the switch.
  8. Scroll down and click Add New Webhook to Workspace.
  9. Choose the Slack channel where you want to receive notifications.
  10. Click Allow to grant permissions.
  11. Copy the generated Webhook URL.

Connect Slack to a visitor registration point

  1. Sign in to Kisi as an org admin or owner.
  2. Navigate to the Visitor Management app.
  3. Select the registration point you want to receive notifications for from the dropdown in the top right corner, then click the settings (gear) icon next to it.
  4. Paste the Webhook URL from Slack into the designated field.
  5. Click Save.

Repeat this process for additional registration points. You can:

  • Use the same Webhook URL to send all notifications to a single Slack channel.
  • Create separate Webhook URLs for each registration point to send notifications to different channels.

Once set up, whenever a visitor checks in at a selected registration point, Kisi will automatically send a message with visit details to the configured Slack channel.
