# Connect Slack to Wave

When you connect Slack to a Product Area, Wave passively listens to the channels where your team discusses that part of the product. Wave treats those conversations as another signal when it discovers and investigates opportunities.

## Choose channels to monitor

You must be an Amplitude organization admin to connect Slack.

1. Open the Product Area and click **Configure**.
2. Open _Message Channels_.
3. If Slack isn't connected yet, click **Connect to Slack** and authorize Amplitude.
4. Choose the Slack channels Wave should listen to for this Product Area.

Each Product Area has its own channel list, so a channel can feed one area without affecting the others.

## Control replies in Slack threads

Wave can reply in Slack threads in the channels it monitors. Set reply behavior for each channel in _Message Channels_. For example, let Wave reply in a team channel and keep it silent in a busy support channel.
