## Using Lightdash in private channels
40+
41+
Lightdash supports private Slack channels, but because Slack doesn't allow apps to see private channels by default, you'll need to manually add the Lightdash app to your private channel first.
42+
43+
To add Lightdash to a private channel, you can either:
44+
45+
- **Use the invite command** - Type `/invite @Lightdash` in the channel

50+

- **Use channel settings** - Click on the channel name, go to **Integrations** > **Add an app**, then search for and add Lightdash

56+
57+
Once the app is added, you can find the channel in Lightdash by either:
58+
59+
- **Refreshing the channel list** in the Lightdash UI
60+
- **Looking up the channel by ID** - You can find your channel ID in Slack by right-clicking on the channel name, selecting "View channel details", then copying the Channel ID from the bottom of the modal.

In Lightdash, paste the channel ID into the Channels input field and select the "Look up channel ID" option to find your private channel.
