In-Slack actions from notifications

Today we've shipped a quick action bar on notifications, which enable you to take common actions on a thread without leaving Slack.

Previously for any action you want to take on a plain thread, you needed to open your browser and open the Plain dashboard. Opening Plain is useful for when you want to draft a response or drive a discussion, but we wanted to make it easier for you to do the majority of the smaller common tasks you’d typically do from Plain – directly in Slack.

In-Slack actions from notifications are now available by default – no action is required to turn them on.
