Pin Messages

It’s possible to pin important messages to any conversation for an easy reference. Pinned items can be seen in the Details section and all members within the channel or direct message can access that information.

How pinning works #

• Pin your messages to add them into the Pinned section within the conversation
• Pin any files by pinning the message in which the actual file was shared in
• Click on the Information icon inside the channel or direct message, and then simply expand the Pinned section to view them all
• If there are pinned messages in a channel/DM, a pin will be displayed in the channel/DM header
