# Slack discussions

> Start an internal Slack thread from a Plain thread, and bring the answer back.

**Slack Discussions** let you loop in product, engineering, or anyone else on your team directly from a support thread, without losing context or switching tools.

## How Slack discussions work

You can start a Slack Discussion by clicking **Start discussion** from inside a thread in Plain, or by pasting the thread link directly into a Slack channel where the Plain bot is installed.

Once a discussion has started, messages, reactions, and attachments added in Slack will also show up in the Plain thread. Once resolved, Plain automatically moves the thread to **Close the loop**.
