Creating new workspaces via Slack

If you are in a discussion within the channel and you need to create a workspace instantly:

1. Type the below slash command in the channel
   
   /creately new <workspace name>
   
   (replace <workspace name> with a preferred name for the workspace.)
   
   
2. If you have permission to create new workspaces as per your plan, Creately will respond to the channel with a link to a new workspace
   
   
3. Your colleagues can then click on the link to open Creately and edit the workspace in real-time

Workspaces created via Slack are by default set to Anyone with the link or Publicsettings. This allows everyone in the channel to access the workspace via the secure link.
