Slack: Find and View External (Non-UM) Workspaces

Environment

U-M Slack

Issue

How do I find and view my external (non-UM) workspaces?

Resolution

There are a few ways to find and navigate to your external (non-UM) workspaces:

  • Click the U-M logo in the top left corner and click the one you’d like to open from the list.
  • Click the workspace switcher icon ("Show workspace switcher") in the top left corner.
    • You can keep the workspace switcher open to always have your external workspaces listed on the left side of your app (as they were before the change).
    • If you don’t want it open all the time, click the workspace switcher icon ("Hide workspace switcher") again to close it.
  • Use keyboard shortcuts.
    • Press Ctrl/Cmd + [number] to jump between your external workspaces in the list. (The number to press corresponds with the order of workspaces in the external workspace list. For example, if the workspace is third in the list, you’d press Ctrl/Cmd + 3.)
    • Press Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + S to open and close the workspace switcher.
