Gupta further said that Slack also enables users to search and share knowledge apart from automation.  

He also unveiled various other functions of Slack that ease down daily work flows. Technology has occupied a significant portion of today's work life, especially after the pandemic, and Slack is digitising the work culture and enabling humans to use the technology efficiently, he added.
