I need to set up a reminder in a channel, but this reminder should not send a notification to all the people in the channel but only to a particular subset.
I tried what shown below.
/reminder @user1 @user2 @user3 A message every 30 days
But when I verify it, slack add " after the first user, which tells me that the reminder would be sent only to the first user and not the others.
I will remind @user1 “@user2 @user3 A message” at 9AM Monday, April 1st.
Will slack send the notification only to user1 or to all them? (As mentioned).
Does Slack have the feature to send reminders to multiple users without disturbing the whole channel?
We don't want to create a separate channel.
Slack will only notify the first user you mention in the remind command.
Slack's reminder command supports only Users and Channels so you cannot create a group to notify a large group of people.
You will probably have to create a separate channel to notify them or create a bot using slack that does that if you want to create a special integration for that
