Common questions
Can Knit build “Record receipts as expenses from chat attachments” between Slack and Brex?
Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches Slack and Brex's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.
How long does it take to build?
Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.
How does connecting Brex and Slack improve team productivity?
It delivers key financial updates—like received payments or overdue invoices—directly into Slack channels, so team members can respond quickly without continually logging into Brex.
Can team members initiate accounting steps directly from a message in Slack?
Yes, you can set up workflows so specific chat interactions or file shares in Slack automatically record expenses or create invoices in Brex.
